    How to keep your engagement ring safe?

    You are likely engaged if you are reading this. If so, you may want to learn how to care for your engagement rings. It’s not surprising that the ring is so much more than a valuable possession. It’s more than a symbol of the love and commitment that you share with your partner. It symbolises the love and commitment you share with your fiance. Proper storage is the most important aspect of caring for an engagement ring. Proper storage will prevent other problems.

    When is it time to remove your engagement ring?

    First, many women engaged to be married often wonder why they should store their engagement rings. Many married women don’t see their rings without them given their importance. There are certain situations where you should not wear your ring. This can lead to it being damaged or lost.

    Sleeping is the best thing.

    It’s a good idea not to wear your ring before you go to bed. We recommend this for a few reasons. There are two reasons why we recommend it. First, if the ring is worn while you sleep, it can cause damage. It could also cause a hole in your sheet. The problem is even worse: many people experience swelling in their fingers while sleeping because the ring doesn’t expand. The prongs can get caught in sheets if your ring has intricate details. They can also become loosening if they aren’t tightened regularly. These concerns are rare, but it is better to be safe.

    When you are washing dishes or bathing

    Both of these scenarios require warm soapy water. Because soap is slippery, it is easier to get an engagement ring off and into the drain. The mounting and diamond can also be damaged if you wear your ring with harsh chemicals.

    When you exercise or garden

    You should also remove your ring when gardening or at the gym. Both can damage your ring but in different ways. The dirt and abrasives of gardening can cause damage to your ring, but the gym and swimming pool offers many other options for chemical damage to your setting or diamond.

    How to protect your engagement ring?

    Keeping your ring safe when you’re not wearing it is essential. You can choose which storage options you prefer depending on your budget, but all storage options should be able to protect your precious ring from being scratched, damaged, or lost. Your diamond must not be damaged by other jewellery.

    Storage options for every day at home

    Most people will store their rings at home, even if they aren’t wearing them. Experts agree that it is best to have a consistent place for your ring. You might want to have one option upstairs and one downstairs.

    Box for an engagement ring

    The original engagement ring box is often the best choice. This box was made to protect your ring from dirt and scratches. A ring box can be difficult to lose and is often too large. If both the wedding and engagement rings are purchased together, some jewellers offer a box with a slot.

    A jewellery box with fabric lining

    You can also place your engagement rings in a box with a fabric liner. You will want to make sure that the box is strong enough to keep your ring safe from scratching or being scuffed by other jewellery. These boxes often have a ring roll section to separate rings while still displaying them.

    Soft fabric pouch

    A soft fabric pouch is a great storage solution that will keep your ring safe and not take up too much space. The pouch can be used to store your ring in the pouch. You could place the pouch in your kitchen drawer and do the dishes while using it. You can keep the pouch clean by putting it in a drawer. The pouch can be paired with any wooden box that can stay closed.

    You can combine your ring and other jewellery

    There are many other things to consider when storing your ring. You should ensure that your ring does not scratch other jewelleryDiamonds can scratch any object they touch. They are among the hardest substances in the world. Hard metals and gemstones used in jewellery can also scratch or break your ring.

    It’s possible to avoid this problem by using a variety of solutions. It is possible to protect your ring from scratch using a fabric pouch. This means you can store your ring with other jewellery as long as you take care.

    Travel storage

    Travelling presents unique storage problems. You can’t bring a large box with you, and you may not have access to your usual storage space. It would help if you also protected the ring against damage and loss.

    You can always put your rings back in the original box. You can then place the box in your hotel safe. This protects your ring against theft. You can also keep the rings in a travel case. If the case is well-designed, you should have other compartments to store other jewellery. It can be placed in your carry-on bag and stored in the safe.

  • Lowkey Gals will love ring-shaped rings.

    Lowkey Gals will love ring-shaped rings.

    Finding the right engagement ring for your low-key fiancee can seem daunting. There are many beautiful pieces of fairytale jewellery, but what if your partner doesn’t want all the glitz and glamour? Many unique and minimal options are available for an engagement ring to express your love.

    What Style do Elements Support a Minimalist Engagement Ring?

    Unique Gemstone Choices

    Choose a modern, simple design solitaire diamond engagement band instead of focusing on flashy details for a fiancee with a more understated style. For a striking statement that will last a lifetime, offset a single solitaire gemstone with your fiancee’s preferred metal.

    You can also find beautiful solitaire engagement rings made with different gemstones for your fiancee if she is not a diamond-loving woman. A coloured gemstone diamond engagement ring allows you to make a modern, unique ring. Your ring can be both creative and affordable, depending on the gemstone you choose.

    Clarity offers a wide range of gemstone options. You can choose from a variety of gemstone shapes so you can create a unique engagement ring. You might consider a beautiful London Blue Topaz or cheerful Peridot centre stone if you’re looking for an unusual coloured stone engagement ring to make for your low-key gal.

    Consider a Ruby, deep Blue Sapphire, or fiery (lab or natural) Diamond if cost is not an issue. You also have the option of a passionate purple Amethyst, a sparkling Aquamarine, or a stylish Black Diamond.

    Bonus Step: Gemstone shapes and other customizable settings

    Add your fiancee’s favourite colour gemstone in one of six forms for a modern twist on an engagement ring (Round. Princess. Cushion. Emerald. Oval. Pear). A coloured gemstone ring is great for a fiancee who likes something different. Your choice of setting and metal band can make your engagement ring more unique. Many options are available to customize your ring, from white gold to rose gold. Consider a single solitaire, bezel-set gemstone for a modern minimalist style. When designing a ring, keeping your fiancee at the forefront is crucial. The ring should be a perfect reflection of your love.

    Subtle stile elements

    You want a ring that is simple and elegant, with interesting details. You should choose a setting that allows subtle elements of your love to shine through. An elegant setting such as this Twirling diamond engagement ring adds romance and elegance without being too complicated. You can create your look by adding subtle details such as a twisted, cross-stitch, or knife-edge band.

    Gemstones with a smaller carat weight

    Instead of looking for flashy statement pieces, look for small diamond cluster rings, and single solitaire stones that complement your fiancee’s minimalist style. Simple doesn’t necessarily have to be uninteresting. A small cluster of diamonds can add sparkle to your look without being too obvious.

    Can I Have a Small Engagement Ring?

    It is easy to get caught up with social expectations when shopping for a wedding or engagement ring. This ring is a declaration of your love for your partner. You must choose a ring that is in keeping with your fiancee’s style, rather than trying to impress other people.

    You may find that a flashy ring is more distracting than helpful for your low-key girl. A simple solitaire or engagement ring can add sparkle to your fiancee’s style without distracting from her style.

    A ring with less emphasis on the gemstone and more metal might be more appealing to a more minimalistic or simple woman. Your low-key gal might prefer a simple, elegant ring to a large, elaborate ring. You may prefer to place less emphasis on the carat weight or size of the gemstones for your fiancee.

    It is 1 Carat Too Small for an Engagement Ring.

    Your partner’s style will help you answer this question. A two-carat gemstone engagement ring may be the best choice for some women. A 1-carat gemstone ring might be the best choice for your fiancee if she prefers a more casual style.

    The Benefits of a Minimalist Ring

    It is acceptable to have a smaller engagement ring. However, the minimalism of the ring has its benefits. For example, if your partner is active, they won’t have to worry about a large, bulky diamond getting in their way. They won’t have to worry about their ring clashing with other jewellery or outfits. Minimal engagement rings are timeless and classic. They are timeless and will never go out of fashion.

  • Are you allowed to wear engagement rings in public?

    Are you allowed to wear engagement rings in public?

    There are many debates and discussions about whether or not you should wear your wedding and engagement rings in public. A gym is a commonplace where people are hesitant to wear their rings. Why? Below is a list of common questions and answers about the public wearing engagement and wedding rings. You may not know some important details about engagement ring etiquette.

    Why wear your wedding ring in public?

    Ask yourself why you are wearing your engagement or wedding rings in public. Do you love the ring? Do you want to show the world you have committed?

    There are many reasons why people wear rings. Some people decide to wear their rings based on how others view them. Your ring can make or break your relationship status. Others wear their ring because they are proud of their spouse and partner.

    There are many reasons people wear their wedding and engagement rings in public. Did you ever think about the reasons you wear your engagement and wedding rings in public?

    Why are people saying not to wear rings in public?

    Why is it that people don’t want you to wear your engagement/wedding rings in public? Although the answers to this question are often varied, some make valid points in certain cases.

    Many people around the globe are guilty of removing their rings frequently when they:

    • Handling greasy and other messy food
    • Hand washing. Many stories have been told about a ring falling down the drain. It is better to remove your ring(s) to prevent losing anything between a few hundred and a few thousand dollars.
    • Swimming. Coldwater can shrink your fingers to make your hand jewellery more likely to come off. Your ring setting can also be damaged by chlorine from swimming pools.
    • Gardening. We recommend that you wear rubber gloves to protect your jewellery. To be safe, it’s a good idea to store your jewellery temporarily.

    People may choose not to wear rings in public for other reasons. You can take this example:

    • Some jobs make jewellery unsuitable or unsafe for them to wear. These include those who exercise regularly or have an active lifestyle. Sometimes, people forget to wear their rings after applying makeup or getting up in the morning.

    Is it OK to not wear a wedding ring?

    It is fine not to have an engagement ring, wedding ring or set of wedding rings. People rarely think twice about finding out if someone is married when talking to them. It is no longer true that every married person should not have a ring. However, we want to reiterate the point we made earlier: people in public assume you are not married if your ring is not on you.

    Talk to your partner about the decision not to wear a wedding band. You and your partner are the only ones who matter in this situation.

    Which order should you wear your engagement and wedding rings?

    It seems like a random question. But, do you know people who don’t like wearing their wedding bands and engagement rings in public? They don’t know which one goes on their ring finger. They can also be worn differently.

    You can choose how your ring is worn, just as you can decide whether to wear it at all. The wedding ring is worn in front of the engagement band on your wedding day, which is usually already on the left finger. Some people prefer to keep the rings in this position.

  • Engagement rings for First Responders

    Engagement rings for First Responders

    Problems can arise from high-profile, bulky engagement rings made of gemstones or diamonds. They are also more susceptible to damage and wear. There is an answer. First responders have the option of a low-profile (or low-set) engagement ring. These rings have a lower setting, and the head of precious gemstones is closer to the finger.

    Top Tips for Buying the Best Engagement Ring

    • Choose a ring that has fewer accent stones. This will prevent snagging. You don’t want your ring to get caught on machinery, tools or sutures. This is possible if you wear a low-set ring.
    • Choose a coloured gemstone with round edges or a centre diamond. If you want an emerald or pear shape, make sure the prongs cover the tapered tip. You must wear gloves when working with your hands as first responders. You don’t want to lose a ring or have it scratched by stones.
    • Learn about different stone shapes. The most popular shapes are round, pear, princess, oval and circle. Although less common, marquise, cushion, emerald and marquise are equally beautiful and can make for unique settings. Importantly, the shape of the stone can impact the price of the ring. Do your research!
    • Select the right material for your ring. Metal strength is dependent on what metal you use. As a first responder, it is important to have something sturdy and durable. The next section will find more information about our recommendations for setting metals.
    • You don’t need to be safe. While classic diamond-encrusted engagement rings are lovely, why not try something different? e.g., blue gemstones, pear engagement rings, emerald cut engagement rings, black diamond engagement rings, etc. These gems make some of the most beautiful gemstone engagement rings.
    • Research Lab Created Diamonds: You can now choose to purchase a ring with either a lab-created diamond or a natural one. Lab-created diamonds are created in controlled laboratories. Natural diamonds are natural stones that were formed naturally. Lab diamonds are identical in their chemical, physical, and visual makeup. Lab-created diamonds are usually cheaper. It is easier to choose the right ring for you and your partner by understanding the differences between these precious stones.

    Everything about Metal Settings

    What is better, silver or gold?

    Silver is very weak and can cause scratches and dings. White gold, compared to yellow and rose gold, can be a little weaker. This can be overcome by making sure your white gold ring has been rhodium-plated. This makes the ring more durable and resistant to wear. For strength and sparkle, all Clarity’s white-gold engagement rings are rhodium-plated.

    Platinum

    Platinum is another option. Although this dense metal is more resistant to scratching than gold, it will feel heavier on your fingers. Platinum rings are more durable than gold and are therefore more expensive.

    Titanium

    Titanium is stronger than platinum, but it feels lighter than platinum. This metal setting is also very easy to maintain. While being an alternative, titanium is not as resistant to bacteria as gold, silver, or platinum. We must emphasize that not all metals can resist all bacteria. First responders should ensure that they clean engagement rings thoroughly.

    Rhodium

    Clarity offers rhodium plating for white gold engagement rings. The rhodium plating is added by Clarity to their white gold engagement rings.

  • Unisex wedding bands

    Unisex wedding bands

    Is there such a thing? Yes, it is! Technology has made it possible to do almost anything in these modern times. It is not something that everyone understands. We can make that change! Below is some information about unisex marriage bands and general wedding rings.

    What do wedding bands symbolize?

    Many theories exist about the true history of wedding rings. They are used in many cultures to represent different things. The origins of wedding rings vary from one country to the next. Many people believe that the idea of a wedding ring dates back to the cavemen. The process began with attaching a boulder to the ankles of the woman “claimed.” This would stay attached until the man knew she wouldn’t flee. He would then find something to tie around her finger to remind her that she was being “spoken for.” This is also where you tie a string around your finger to remember something. In Ancient Rome, the wedding ring was a symbol that showed that a spouse was “property,” but this isn’t a romantic or loving concept. Today, however, rings represent our eternal love for each other (and let’s be honest, they are cool and fun). Your unisex wedding rings can mean anything you and your partner decide.

    What Should You Pay for a Wedding Ring?

    This is something that almost every person looking for a wedding band asks. In truth, no one can tell how much to spend on wedding bands. Many people would argue that the value of a ring is more important than its price. However, some people want to spend a lot and get the best ring on the market. Prices for wedding bands can vary from a few hundred dollars to several thousand. However, being more expensive does not always mean better. This means that the metal has a higher carat and the gemstones have better quality.

    Unisex wedding bands are not more expensive than those tailored for specific genders. They are still made of the same materials and in the same manner. While some companies may market them differently or offer different pricing, especially if they’re sold in sets or pairs, you don’t have to worry that their price will increase because they are not unisex rings. As with all rings, the price can change depending on the metals and gemstones you choose and any customizations you and your partner request.

    Can You Buy Wedding Bands Together?

    This is another one of those things that truly depends on you or your partner. We do have some advice. The wedding band selection phase in your relationship will not surprise you, unlike the engagement ring. You are likely well past the point of needing wedding bands if you’re in that situation. We recommend that you go together to shop for your wedding rings. This will ensure you get the right sizes, and neither one of you picks a ring that is too small. The wrong ring could cost you a lot of money, and it can be expensive.

    Which metal is best for a wedding band?

    This is another question that you and your partner will have to answer. When choosing the metal for your wedding band, consider many things, such as lifestyle, attraction to flash (or a lack thereof), skin allergies and sensitivities, job type, personal preference, and personal preference. We have compiled a list of some of the most sought-after wedding metals for your inspiration and information.

    White Gold, Yellow Gold and Rose Gold

    • White gold. Because white gold is often plated with Rhodium (a strong and white metal), it tends to be stronger than yellow (and many other metals). This plating gives white gold rings their “white” colour.
    • Yellow Gold. Yellow gold wedding bands have existed for as long as rings made of metals. Although it is a soft metal, it is ideal for those who don’t plan to wear it every day or are not inclined to use their hands much. It is timeless, classic, and will last a lifetime if you love it and take care of it. You can also opt for a thin wedding band in gold with diamonds if you want to be flashy but still keep it classic and traditional.
    • Rose Gold. Although rose is slightly more soft than steel or white, it is still stronger than plain yellow. It is also reinforced with other alloys, adding strength and giving it that beautiful colour people love.

    Other Popular Metal Options

    • PlatinumPlatinum has been rated as one of the hypoallergenic metals available. This is a great option for people with metal allergies. This is a great option for those who want silky, shiny wedding bands. Platinum is also one of the most beautiful metals. It adds a lot of bling to your wedding bands to symbolize the union you share.
    • Palladium. It’s 95% pure, which means it has only 5% of other alloys. This makes it more appealing for those who want to have metals that aren’t “diluted.” This makes it more delicate and delicate, making it a more attractive choice for jewellery. It can also support more intricate designs, useful for custom-made jewellery.
    • Titanium. Titanium is one of the most durable and strong metals. A titanium ring can be worn almost anywhere, and you won’t have to worry about it scratching. Its strength makes it an excellent metal for engraving. It is also hypoallergenic and can be worn with almost any clothing style. This metal is great for those who work with their hands, which can otherwise make it difficult to use wedding rings made from other metals.
    • Stainless steel. If you live a very active lifestyle and have questions or doubts about metals, especially if you are unsure about white/silver metals, you should consider stainless steel wedding bands. You can do almost anything with stainless steel, and it’s easy to find a variety of ring options made from stainless steel bands.

    Please Note: Do not let the word “softer metal” make you feel bad! You will have an amazing experience with your wedding rings if you choose the right metal and do the things that you enjoy. For many years, you will be able to use any metal, especially if it comes from a trusted jewellery source. Another thing to remember is that you can get unisex wedding rings from any of these metals! No-one metal can be used for all genders. You can make your perfect ring from that metal if you like it!

    Are our silicone wedding bands safe?

    Yes! These rings are among the safest you can get, not only for you but also for the ring. The silicone used to make the rings does not absorb heat or heat up. This prevents heat damage to your wedding band and also protects your fingers. It is not a good idea for any wedding band to be worn around heat (see the above information about the best metals for you), but your silicone wedding band will work just fine no matter what. The silicone allows you to manipulate your ring to be removed if it becomes too stiff. Silicone can also make unisex rings, just like metals.

  • Wedding Band Trends

    Wedding Band Trends

    Like jeans and shoes, there are trend trends to consider when selecting the right ring. It’s not a good idea for your future wife to be seen with an out-of-style ring. She is not the only one who should be fashionable. This guide will help you choose the right gift for her, and we’ll also discuss men’s trends in wedding bands.

    The most common styles

    A classic ring is timeless and can be trusted without a doubt. You can’t go wrong with a classic ring. Clarity has a wide selection of classic, timeless wedding rings that will last a lifetime.

    Wedding bands with curved edges

    This design has a subtle dip that creates an optical illusion. Despite its curving design, this type of wedding band can still be embellished with diamonds or an engraved message.

    Wedding bands in diamonds

    These rings are made from all precious metals and studded in accent diamonds. They will match your engagement ring.

    Metal wedding bands

    This is one of the best styles currently on offer. The wedding band is thin and delicate, which highlights long fingers. It also gives off a sophisticated image with no accent diamonds.

    Recommendations for Women’s bands:

    • Rose gold wedding band
    • Wedding band in yellow gold
    • Wedding band in white gold

    Types of setting

    Talking about wedding rings is incomplete without mentioning diamonds. It is important to think about where your big diamonds will be displayed when shopping for a ring. This list will cover all the latest trends in diamond wedding bands.

    Pave

    One of the most popular designs in the wedding industry is the pave setting. This design features diamonds wrapped around the wedding band to create an elegant and impeccable finish.

    Channel

    Channel settings are two lines of diamonds that are arranged in a channel. They are usually placed on either side of a central gem. This is an excellent choice for brides looking for a classic, elegant ring.

    French pave

    French pave all about the sparkle. The French pave showcases diamonds in such a way as to maximize their exposure to sunlight, resulting in bright and glowing sparkle.

    Your wedding ring is not limited to diamonds. You can also stack wedding bands to make your ring stand out. This layout, also known as the “two wedding bands” trend, involves putting at least two rings on your finger. There are many unique options for women’s wedding bands.

    Wedding bands for men

    Recommendations for Men’s Bands:

    • Knife-edge wedding band
    • Gradually pave diamond wedding band.
    • Two-colour carved dome men’s band
    • Band for men made of lightweight carved satin
    • Men’s satin round diamond wedding band

    People often think only about the bride’s wedding band when they think of it. People seem to forget that marriage is not about one person and that men also need rings. Just as women love to be trendy, men also like women, like rings that match the latest trends.

    There are many options for men when it comes to wedding rings. They can choose to have a ring with diamonds or a ring without. A ring made of silver and without diamonds is the most timeless, classic style for men.

  • The benefits of buying a custom engagement ring

    The benefits of buying a custom engagement ring

    It doesn’t matter if you have been with your partner for a while or just a few months. Choosing the right engagement ring can be a big decision. These rings are an expensive investment that will last a lifetime. The two most important decisions aside from the budget are the style and the cost of the ring. If you want to create the ring yourself, these are also crucial. We’ll be discussing the how and why of custom-made engagement rings in this article.

    What is a custom-made engagement ring?

    A custom engagement band is a ring made to the customer’s specifications and is therefore unique. Custom-made engagement rings can be unique because they aren’t made in the past. They do not use a standard ring setting or one usually carried by your jeweller. A custom ring can be made with any combination of design elements. There are many options.

    Custom Ring Design Ideas

    Engagement rings are more than just a symbol of commitment for a growing number of couples. Instead, different design elements can reflect the bride’s style, a favourite motif or an aspect of the couple’s cultural heritage. Custom-designed engagement rings can be used to incorporate these features. Tell the jeweller what you want and, if possible, show a photo.

    You can also look at magazines and admire celebrity rings for inspiration for your perfect-gold engagement rings. Although celebrity rings can be too costly for most couples, many design elements can be modified to fit your budget. Consider vintage styling. You might find that your grandmother’s engagement ring has an unusual appeal that you would like to include. You can also create unique engagement rings using gemstones. You can use any size gemstones and incorporate them anywhere you like.

    You don’t always have to do it all alone. Consider including your girlfriend in the design process if you both like shopping together. You can let your girlfriend drop some hints and then follow up, or you can show her the drawings. Because there are so many options, including custom-made gemstone engagement rings, it is important to include your girlfriend. Many women love their favourite gemstones. Others are more passionate about diamond rings.

    You have many options when it comes to customizing your engagement ring.

    It’s easy to wonder about your options when there are so many different diamond engagement rings that jewellers can make. First, round diamonds are still the most popular choice, even for custom-made designs. This shape is timeless, and it lends itself well to endless design possibilities. One set can be combined into a ring with her birthstone. You could also consider a unique setting, such as one shaped like her favourite flower.

    Does your girlfriend find most diamond engagement ring designs boring? Are most diamond engagement rings too boring? You might consider a custom design that incorporates the best elements of her favourite designs. Maybe you prefer the shank on one ring but not the halo. We can also make a custom order if you have something that she likes but is not available in the metal you prefer. Clarity can make custom-made engagement rings in white, yellow or rose gold at 14K and 18K purities. We can also make a platinum ring. You can achieve almost any look with these options.

    What is the best way to get a custom-made engagement ring?

    Even the most exquisite custom-made engagement rings may not be suitable for everyone. Customers may prefer to choose a pre-made ring or purchase a set and diamond that can be assembled. These options are more flexible but come with a shorter lead time. With this in mind, there are certain situations when going custom is a great option.

    Timeline for custom engagement rings

    A custom-made engagement ring takes longer to make because it is made from scratch. First, your jeweller will need to meet with you, and then the computer will design the ring. These will show you photos of the design. This may take several attempts depending on what you have in mind. The jeweller will provide a quote once you are satisfied with the result. The jeweller will then create a mould using 3D printing technology.

    After you approve the design, the mould is used to create your ring set using the metal you prefer. The setting will need to be polished to make it shine. Our team of gemologists will then set each stone in the setting. Remember that you must always choose the centre stone. The ring is made by us and takes time. A custom ring can be made for you by Clarity in 3 weeks.

    Designing the Perfect Design

    Some people believe that expressing your love through a customized design is best to express it. Your girlfriend is unique, right! Sometimes, it’s not enough. You can order custom-made engagement rings online and achieve a look you have never imagined. This is a great way to express your love by saying, “I made this.”

    Setting an Heirloom Diamond

    A surprising number of couples have a special diamond or other gems that are perfect for an engagement band. There’s a good chance that the shape of the vintage diamond is irregular, especially if it is. It isn’t easy to fit the diamond in a ring. Custom-made engagement rings are the best option.

    Custom wedding bands

    Custom engagement rings are great because you can order matching marriage bands. Or you can go both ways. Depending on your aesthetic preferences, you can go either one way or the other. Nevertheless, some designs may not work well alone. The overall look can be incorporated between the rings. A stock ring may not be “fitting” your custom ring. This option should be discussed with your gemologist at the beginning of the design process.

  • Match your jewellery with your diamond engagement rings

    Match your jewellery with your diamond engagement rings

    Diamonds are considered a girl’s best friend. It’s normal for a woman to be wearing an engagement ring once she is engaged. Women want to wear jewellery to work and on dates night. The ring must match her jewellery. Here are some ideas to match your engagement rings with everyday jewellery.

    How to choose your metals

    The biggest question these days is whether or not you can mix metals. Can you mix rose gold with diamond earrings if your engagement ring has yellow gold settings? You could pair that ring with white-gold diamond earrings. The metal colour of your engagement set used to be the best for your entire jewellery collection.

    Mixing metals are very trendy these days. You can find a variety of gold-coloured necklaces in a typical jewellery shop. The section with the diamonds will usually be made of white gold. However, there may also be yellow or rose gold details. A diamond heart necklace may also be available in a different gold colour than your engagement ring. You should wear it proudly if it is a gift from your fiancée.

    Mixing styles

    You might want to match your real diamond earrings with the ring. Is the ring made with vine-like details like our Adorn collection? Consider diamond stud earrings in curved gold. You may even find something that matches the milgrain details.

    If you are looking for vintage-inspired details in your engagement ring, some antique details may be a good idea. A pair of 1-carat emerald-cut diamond earrings would look great. A custom-made diamond pendant can be a big hit if the ring is an antique.

    What is the easiest thing to wear every day for you (or her)?

    Many people believe that less jewellery is better. Many women wear small, simple earrings when they go to work. They are less likely to be noticed or get in the way. A little jewellery love can make her feel beautiful. Consider a diamond solitaire necklace that matches her engagement ring. It’s easy to wear if the earrings are also made of the diamond solitaire.

    Not everything she wears must be made from one diamond. You may also find other jewellery that reflects her values and is easy to wear. Many Christian women enjoy wearing cross-shaped diamond necklaces. You will likely find the right one for her. We have many examples of this design available on our website. The initial diamond pendant is another option. These are timeless and can be worn anywhere, just like crosses.

    What makes diamond jewellery such a wonderful gift?

    You can celebrate any occasion. Many men will give their wives a pair of diamond huggie earrings as a holiday gift. A small necklace in any style can make a great birthday gift. This is a simple and elegant choice that she will be proud to wear. A diamond bracelet can be the star of the party to commemorate a promotion or anniversary.

    What amount should I spend?

    It is an art to know how much you should spend on your everyday diamond jewellery. Every couple is different. They have different incomes and lifestyles. These factors will impact how much you can afford each piece.

    Here are some examples from the With Clarity catalogue. The solitaire diamond stud is one of the most popular earrings. For less than $500, we have round lab-created ones made in white gold. The same type of diamond can be purchased for $1000 in one-carat lab earrings. Both are made in 14kt gold. Are you looking for mined diamonds? These prices are approximately $650 and $2100, respectively.

    Let’s take a look at another example. A round pendant with a.5ct lab diamond in 14kt Gold costs $1160. The natural diamond version is $1470 and includes a chain. The Credence pendant is a small version of the diamond pendant. It’s shaped like a cross. This pendant comes with lab diamonds and costs only $250

    These prices can teach us two important lessons. The first is that the size of a diamond matter. It’s not just a linear difference. The Credence pendant is very affordable because it has many small diamonds. It’s also cheaper to buy earrings with a total weight of half-carat (or.25 each) rather than to purchase a pendant weighing.5ct. Another lesson is the price difference between natural and lab diamonds.

    What is a lab diamond?

    Lab diamonds can be compared to mined diamonds in that they are made from pure carbon. They also share the same chemical and optical properties. It is impossible to distinguish them from mined diamonds without special equipment. They are made in two ways: one is created in a laboratory, and the other is mined. Because man can make lab diamonds, they are usually less expensive than mine. They can be used to save money or avoid ethical problems.

    We’d also like to remind you that there are many options if you’re looking for an engagement band that matches her jewellery collection. There are three options available from Clarity. The first is the pre-set ring, which ships quickly and has no customization options. There’s also the “make it your own” option, in which you select a diamond and a setting and our jewellers will put them together. We can also create custom ring designs to fit your style and budget. Contact us to speak with one of our gemologists. They will assist you in making the right choice.

  • The Best Jewelry Gifts to Show Self-Love

    The Best Jewelry Gifts to Show Self-Love

    Everyone feels a little stressed these days. Burnout is a real possibility, regardless of whether it’s from cancelled vacations, working remotely, or having to care for the children all day. This is especially true because our homes are now the centre of all activities. We are no longer able to leave our work problems at the office. Instead, we can be at our “workplace”, 24 hours a day. The biggest loss is the lack of self-care. Clarity jewellery can be a great way to help you deal with everyday challenges.

    Why self-love is important

    Mentally healthy people know how to practice self-love. But understanding the whole concept is crucial to its practice. Psychologists say self-love is any practice that allows you to show respect and cope with the unexpected. This means permitting yourself to take a breather from time to time. It is important not to criticize others and protect your overall health.

    This is why it is so important. We are our best friends. We know what we need better than anyone. Sometimes, it is as easy as going for a walk around the block to get our heads clear. Neglecting our current needs can lead to a lot of problems. Neglecting to love ourselves can lead to burnout, health problems, or relationship breakdowns. It comes down to this: if we don’t love ourselves, we won’t do our best for others.

    It is possible to love yourself and enjoy your life. It will be more enjoyable to take a walk on the shore with someone you love, alone or with someone else. Maybe you’ll enjoy the great joke someone told you more. If we love ourselves, even hobbies can be more enjoyable than ever. In turn, we lead happier, healthier lives.

    Giving self-love gifts is a great way for you to grow.

    Most people practise self-love with some “me time.” This could include going to the spa, having dinner with friends, or just watching a movie at home. These activities allow you to step away from the grind of your job and daily chores. They are, however, temporary, and the experience will end in a matter of hours.

    Self-love gifts are a lasting way to express your gratitude. Jewellery is a great self-love gift. If you choose carefully, jewellery can show that you are proud of yourself. Self-love jewellery is a great way to lift your spirits in times of need. These gifts are a great reminder of your value and can be a source of strength.

    Lab diamonds are great self-love gifts.

    Everyone loves the sparkle of diamonds. Depending on the jewellery they are set into, diamonds can brighten up your face and neck or even your hands. The best thing about diamonds, however, is their versatility. You can wear diamond jewellery with almost any outfit, day or night.

    Because lab diamonds are real diamonds but more affordable, they make excellent self-love gifts. This means more people can buy them for themselves than for extravagant occasions. The romantic appeal of diamonds is even better. Women are used to receiving diamonds from their husbands. Lab diamonds, which can be used as jewellery for self-love and love, can remind us to love ourselves.

  • How to Engrave Wedding Bands

    How to Engrave Wedding Bands

    Weddings are special occasions, so your wedding bands should reflect that. Your ring will be with you for many years. We will show you how to make your wedding day even more memorable.

    You can make your wedding bands more memorable by engraving them in the centre. This is where most wedding rings are engraved. A unique design wrapped around one’s finger is a great idea. Everyone wants to feel special and unique. Continue reading to learn more about the custom engraving of wedding bands.

    How does a jeweller embroider a wedding band?

    Engraving refers to the act of putting a design or phrase on the surface of an object. Permanent engraving can be as precise and detailed as you like, or it can be simple and abstract.

    There are two main types of engraving that jewellers use. The first is rotary engraving. This uses a tool bit to carve the object’s surface. While this method is very precise, it has some limitations. The engraving design can only be as thick as the bit. Rotary engraving is a great option for couples who want to engrave their wedding bands with a meaningful sentence or word.

    Laser engraving is another option. Laser engraving uses a powerful laser beam to etch the object’s surface. Laser engraving offers greater precision and intricateness. Laser engraving allows you to set the depth of your engraving. This is a great option for couples who want a more intricate engraving.

    Why engraving your ring is important.

    An engraving is a great way to remember a particular phrase or design. Engravings can be engraved with any message that you wish to keep forever. To make your bands even more special, you can include inside jokes or special dates.

    Engraving is also a great way to make a personal impression. The majority of engravings are found on the inside of the rings, and only the wearer is aware. You can make your partner feel special and loved every moment of the day by engraving their wedding band.

    Unique ideas

    There are many engraving options, but some ideas to help you get started.

    • “I love you.”
    • “Perfect fit”
    • “Forever”
    • “To the moon and back.”
    • “Mine”

    Remember that you are the final one to decide what is written or drawn on your wedding bands. You can create any idea for your custom wedding band engraving.

    Engraving a wedding band costs

    Band engraving is affordable. With Clarity offers free ring engraving for wedding bands and Engagement Rings.

    Matching engravings

    Matching messages can be engraved on your wedding rings. Here are some examples:

    • Names
    • Nicknames
    • Wedding dates
    • Anniversaries
    • Initials
    • Names of children

    Restrictions

    There are many options when it comes to decorating your ring. You can etch platinum wedding bands or engrave gold wedding bands. You can engrave gold, silver, titanium, or platinum. You can even engrave diamonds using laser technology. You don’t have to limit your options based on the ring material you choose. There are endless possibilities.

    Many styles can be engraved, but some styles are easier to engrave. Consider the placement of diamonds, for instance.

    Eternity bands with a row of diamonds are not the best choice for an engraved ring. Due to the accent diamonds, it is virtually impossible to etch any engraving on this wedding band. For special sketching, platinum wedding bands are a great choice. You can also engrave gold wedding bands if you want something more extravagant. Be aware of metalwork rings and bands where engraving may alter or remove the design.
