GIA Wedding Rings

Grace C asked:


What is that small tool that those diamond ring makers use to inspect diamonds and make rings, etc? Its like a mini scope that people use to look at its flaws, details, etc. Many diamond ring stores have them. What are they called?

M L asked:


Engagement ring first then wedding band, or wedding band first then engagement ring? And are there any stories, superstitions, etc., about the order to wear the rings? Thanks!

i read an add about palladium engagement rings and it said “don’t go broke for love” so i’m assuming that its cheaper than gold.. i was trying to find something about it on google but everything pretty much told me about the element and not the jewelry.

i’ve been looking at engagement rings lately and i didn’t know if palladium was a good choice, if it cheaply made, etc.. so if you have a palladium ring or know someone who does and can tell me anything about it.. please help!

I want a square cut solitaire diamond ring for xmas and my bf is getting one for me but within a budget of around $300. I was wondering why all the round shaped ones cost so much less than the square ones. Also any tips in choosing the right ring? I don’t like gold but silver or white gold is fine. And his budget of around $300 is only because this is more of a promise ring and we’ve only been together for a little over a year. Thanks for all the input.

I am looking to get married next year and there are so many choices to buy engagement rings from. I am very meticulous to where I would like to buy a diamond ring, and would like any suggestions on the best companies I can buy from. Can anyone help me with this question.
Sorry, I forgot to mention where I live at… I live in NYC and I would like to spend a good amount of money for a very good quality diamond engagement ring and wanted to know the places where either I can get good value for a really top grade diamond and ring, or a very nice name brand… As you can see, I am very out of my element when it comes to jewelry. Ok thank’s
