Choosing an engagement ring is exciting — but let’s be honest, it can also be confusing. With so many
shapes, styles, and options out there, where do you start?
I’ve helped clients pick engagement rings for years, and here’s a simple guide to make it easier for you.
1. Start with Her Style
Think about what she usually wears:
- Does she like classic or modern styles? - Is she into yellow gold, white gold, or maybe rose gold? -
Does she wear minimal jewelry or bold pieces?
Understanding her style is the first – and most important – step.
2. Choose the Shape
Shapes matter more than you think. Here are some popular ones:
- Round – timeless and always sparkly - Oval – elegant and elongates the finger - Cushion – soft
edges, very romantic - Pear – unique and vintage-vibe - Emerald – clean lines, very chic
Each shape has its own character. Choose the one that feels like her.
3. Don’t Stress Over the 4Cs — They're All Important, But Balance Is Key
You'll hear a lot about the 4Cs — cut, color, clarity, and carat. They all matter, but you don’t need to
chase perfection in every category.
What’s more important is knowing what’s important to you and choosing a diamond that gives you: -
The look you love - The quality that makes sense - The confidence you made the right choice
We’re here to help you understand the differences so you can feel good about your diamond — without
the pressure.
4. Set a Budget and Stick to It
You don’t need to break the bank. At The Diamond Cutter, we help you find the best diamond within
your budget and keep the process honest and easy.5. Choose the Right Setting
Want a diamond that’s protected? Go for a bezel setting. Looking for something classic? A four-prong
solitaire never fails. It all depends on her lifestyle and taste.
6. Work with a Private Jeweler
Buying from a private jeweler like us means: - Personal guidance - Better value - Custom designs that
fit her style - No pressure or retail upsells - More attractive pricing than traditional stores
At The Diamond Cutter, I work directly with each client — no salespeople, no middlemen. You're getting
expertise and honesty, every time.

Listen to your gut. If you see a piece and think “She’ll love this,” you’re probably right.
