More Great Information on Diamond Solitaire:
Choosing And Buying The Diamond Ring For Your Engagement by
On the market today you don't see many different styles of jewelry it seems there are hardly any new ideas out there on the market. Jewelry is something almost every woman adores. There are so many different types of metal that is used to make jewelry, platinum, gold, silver and titanium. Jewelry is suppose to last a long time so what many manufactures do is they use stronger metals in the jewelry like titanium. Diamonds will go with any type of jewelry, it can be used in earrings, rings, necklaces and bracelets, it can also be used with other precious stones, but the most use of the diamond is in engagement rings.
The weight of a diamond is measured in carats. One carat is equal to two hundred milligrams of weight. In today's world if the diamond is over one carat in size it will usually come with a certificate from the laboratory specifying the inclusions, color and size. Carat is the diamond industry standard, it is a unit of weight to measure diamonds. The carat itself is made of one hundred particular parts called points.
The best cut will display the diamond's brilliance to the best effect. When looking at a stone you need to look from the top down, this way you can see all of the facets and you need to check to see if you can see any inclusions in the diamond. Another name for a teardrop diamond is known as pear and the emerald cut is an octagonal shape which is oblong, the marquise diamond is an oval and it has points at the end. However, the pavilion can be cut with 4, 6, or 8 pavilion main facets. There are so many different types of cuts, there is the round, square, pear and cushion. When a diamond is cut it is cut for brilliance and to let the light reflect off of the facets.
There are many shapes of stones, but the one shape that is most sought after is the round diamond, it has the greatest reflective power and brilliance. The brilliance is determined by the ability of the diamond to reflect light.
The transparent white colorless diamond is most popular variety, but diamond also occurs in colors. When color is prominent it is called a fancy diamond. There are many different factors that will create color in a diamond. One of those factors is carbon spots in the diamond itself which will through off the color.
You could use any diamond ring that you like to give for an anniversary present. The solitaire is another ring that people like to give as an anniversary present. Most people notice the Engagement Ring and not the Wedding Band. That's why most women will want a nice round diamond of at least 1 carat in size. It is usually the engagement ring that is admired, not her wedding ring. And the setting of the diamond solitaire is there really just to hold the diamond.
Platinum is fast becoming the favorite choice in diamond settings and bands. When platinum is used for jewelry it is sometimes used for its strength and high shine and the ability to resist scratching. Platinum is geared toward a more modern look, whereas gold is traditionally beautiful.

Are 1/5 CT. Diamond Solitaire Stud Earrings a good size diamond earring?
I want to get my girlfriend diamond earrings for Christmas, is 1/5 ct a standard size or is that too small?
Thanks!
<3
What would be a good size?
Buy what you can afford. For ladies, the bigger the better, usually, but don't go into big debt over diamonds for a girlfriend.
My college room mate and I had an expression when we saw our other male friends buying diamonds for their girlfriends...We said, "Yeah...I've already bought my diamonds", as in that most guys have to do it just once in their lives before they realize what idiots they were because the truth is, most relationships break up for one reason or another. I am not saying that YOUR relationship is going to break up. You may be thinking on marrying her and I wish you the best of luck.
I bought my wife a beautiful 2 carot diamond engagement band in a fishtail platinum gold setting, adorned by four other 1/4 carot diamonds (total gem weight, 3 carrots). This I made up specially via a jeweler in the diamond district of New York that I had flown in to visit, just for this occasion. I was having something made up to match the wedding band I inherited from my mother which was the same setting, but with five equal size 1/4 carot diamonds. So total gem weight on her hand was 4.25 carots and she was so proud to show them off in her work behind the counter at a department store, selling cosmetics. People would look at her hand and ask with envy, "Did Zales spit up on you or what?" and she took great delight in that attention.
Well anyway, we were married for 10 years, separated, and imagine my shock to discover the engagement band I made specially for her, now with the 2 carot diamond wrestled out of it's setting by obviously, a jewelers tool of some kind. She was dating a pawn shop jeweler at the time (yes when we were still married), and pawned the diamond I bought her to pay the retainer on the incredibly expensive divorce attorney she hired ($450 per hour) which I ended up having to pay half for in the divorce, thus extinguishing the children's college education fund and our retirement nest egg.
Long story short, don't go into heavy debt buying your diamonds. Love can be fickle which is why Marilyn Monroe struck a universal chord when she sang the song, "Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend!". Watch the video if you haven't seen that scene. It might help you from getting blinded by bigger diamonds.
