An engagement ring is more than likely to be the third biggest purchase you make in your life after a house and car – so getting it right is essential.
There are clear benefits to buying the engagement ring that you’ll propose with from an independent, expert jeweller like me, and those advantages go far beyond the fact that you’re guaranteed to receive exceptional quality and craftsmanship.
My service is highly personalised in a way that the big High Street chains and online retailers can’t hope to achieve.
That means spending as much time with you as is necessary to understand exactly what you’re looking for and learn as much as possible about your intended’s personal taste and style before showing you an extensive range of stones that might tick all of her requirements.
Choosing an engagement ring can be nerve-wracking. Unless the pair of you have been looking at rings together to get an idea of what she might want, the chances are you’ll be making this purchase in secret – and that brings a lot of pressure.
Then there’s the fact that the considerations you’ll need to make when selecting an engagement can be overwhelming. You’ll need to think about the 4 Cs – carat, clarity, cut and colour. Then there’s the shape of the stone to consider, inclusions and the precious metal that forms the ring itself.
I’ll talk you through the everything, explaining the advantages and disadvantages of the stones I show you until we arrive at a shortlist of diamonds that you’ll be reasonably confident she’ll love.
And if I don’t have the right stone already, I’ll be able to source it from a network of trusted and reputable dealers.
As well as expert knowledge that comes from years of experience, you’ll get a GIA-certified stone, a hand-made engagement ring that is truly unique and made to your exact specification, and – as long as you know her tastes well enough – guaranteed to be something she’ll be proud to wear forever.
But I don’t just offer help and support in choosing the perfect ring. My book – The Engagement Ring – is also a good source of useful tips and information about the process of preparing to pop the question.
