Selecting the Perfect Diamonique Engagement Or Wedding Ring

Sunday, September 19th, 2010

If you’re searching for a Diamonique engagement ring, the various lines of Diamonique wedding jewelry may initially be overwhelming, but there’s no need to be intimidated.  In fact, selecting a Diamonique engagement ring is profoundly easier than shopping for a diamond ring.   First of all, you don’t need to worry about grading, as all Diamonique stones are all perfectly clear.  Also, you always receive a certificate of authenticity from your Diamonique ring.  And, there’s never any question of provenance or the source of your gemstone.  The best thing, however, is that you don’t have to agonize over breaking your budget.  It’s nearly impossible to spend more than two hundred dollars on a Diamonique wedding ring. Here’s how to select the perfect Diamonique engagement ring for you.

Select a metal. Diamonique jewelry comes in 14k white and yellow gold, sterling silver and platinum.

Choose a setting. You may be interested in a traditional pear-shaped, marquis, round or any other shaped solitaire stone. Multi-stone settings are another option, and some Diamonique styles incorporate colored accent gemstones.  You’ll also see a selection of three stone settings, as well as solitaire and wedding band set.

Think about scale. A ring should correspond to the scale of the hand.  Certain shaped stones accentuate the hand and fingers in different ways.  In general, small hands work better with smaller rings, and larger hands can support larger-sized rings.

Pick your style. Are you looking for a vintage or modern look?  Diamonique wedding rings come with etching and openwork for a retro look, as well as clean, simple edges and curves.

Don’t forget comfort. Certain types of bands, particularly in the Diamonique lines, are designed for comfort.  When you’re considering a lifetime purchase such as a wedding or engagement ring, it’s important that it feels good on your hand.

Diamonique Wedding Sets: Are QVC Rings Believable?

Friday, September 17th, 2010

The wonderful thing about Diamonique wedding sets is that they make for gorgeous engagement rings and wedding bands with both believability and high quality.  The cuts are classic, the clarity of the stones is perfect, and the enormous selection of designs ranges from vintage to modern.

Widely known as a beautiful substitute for diamonds, many people consider “believability” a critical factor when shopping for a Diamonique wedding ring set.   If you’re concerned about “believability,”  with Diamonique wedding sets, consider these points:  Some rings are perfectly suitable for a right-hand or cocktail ring, but worn on the ring finger, just look obnoxious.  So, go ahead and buy the big Diamonique ring and wear it on your right hand.  Also, typically 1-2 carats with smaller accent stones is considered “believable” for a ring.  When you’re talking 3 or more carats is when people seem to raise eyebrows.  Even if you’re in your pajamas, that 1-2 carat size doesn’t look totally out of place.  Just like with diamonds and cubic zirconia, the smaller the stone, the less expensive it is, so a ring encrusted in tiny channel-set or pave stones won’t cost nearly as much as a ring with a single large solitaire. You can get all the cz wedding band sparkle but won’t attract attention from people questioning its “authenticity.”

But before you think I’m telling you to “just be realistic” and buy a sensibly sized wedding ring that looks like something you could actually afford in your lifetime, consider this:  I suggest that Diamonique wedding sets are totally believable.  The clarity and brilliance of the stones themselves, as well as the high quality precious metals and plating not only give the impression of a lovely ring — it IS a lovely ring.  Diamonique jewelry is so believable, in fact, that it fools countless jewelers into thinking they feature real diamonds.  Furthermore, even “real” diamond jewelry varies widely in price.  A lower quality diamond can be purchased from any high-end retailer for thousands less than a higher quality stone.  And you can definitely see the difference.    Would you rather have a low-quality diamond with an odd yellow tinge or a clear, radiant gemstone in a gorgeous precious metal setting?  Our vote is for the Diamonique.  And get as big and bold a style as you like.  The key is, you have to really WEAR it and OWN it.  Jewelry has the power to elevate your look, so if you dress to the occasion, no one would doubt that your ring is “authentic.”  YOU have to be believable.  The ring already is.

This post and related comments from sunshinebride perfectly illustrate why someone who owns a diamond ring might purchase , a cubic zirconia ring to wear when traveling. or during potentially damaging activities.  Whether due to the fit or style of the ring, many women feel nervous wearing their diamond wedding rings in certain situations.   Overstock, QVC and HSN were suggested as reliable places to purchase a high quality cubic zirconia ring with a precious metal setting that isn’t nearly the cost of diamonds.

(Note: We have no experience with buying cubic zirconia from Overstock or HSN, but the Diamonique pieces we own from QVC are fabulous!)

Diamonique Engagement Rings and Sets You’ll Love

Friday, August 28th, 2009

Diamonique engagement rings are not just a QVC favorite, but a  popular and stunning choice for weddings and engagements.  Any cuts or carats you find in diamond engagement rings are available in Diamonique as well.  And like all high-quality cubic zirconia stones, Diamonique gemstones have amazing sparkle and never grow cloudy.

Diamonique is widely considered to be the highest quality simulated gemstone.  You’ll find them exclusively in precious metal settings such as sterling silver, 18k gold and platinum.  This makes them not only gorgeous, but a jewelry piece, like any wedding or engagement ring, to last a lifetime.  It’s no longer a substitute for what you want in a diamond.  It’s a treasure in itself!

The article offers some practical shopping tips:

“It might be tempting to get a ring that is several carats because Diamonique is much less expensive than real diamonds. However, those around you may speculate the ring is not real if they know that diamond size is not in your budget. A classic choice for a solitaire would be a half carat or one carat stone. This gives the appearance of authenticity and is flattering to every finger. In addition to engagement rings you can also find Diamonique wedding bands, bracelets, earrings and much more.”
