Choosing an engagement ring should be an exciting experience, so our first advice is to enjoy every minute. Do plenty of research, consider the different diamond shapes and be open to trying different settings - often, our clients fall in love with a style of ring that wasn’t their first choice but which perfectly suits their hand and feels just right. If you are buying for a partner, your budget will have the biggest impact on the size of diamond, while the look of the ring will be influenced by her personality and style. Look in her jewellery box to find out whether she prefers minimalist or maximalist jewellery and, most importantly, ask her friends for advice - she might already have spoken to them about the engagement rings she likes, and they can help you pin down her style better than anyone else.

Tradition states that you should spend three months’ salary on an engagement ring, but this is more a rule of thumb and relies on how much savings and disposable income you have. In reality, one month’s salary can easily be enough to buy an engagement ring, depending on the size of the centre stone. If you are concerned that your chosen ring will bust the budget in a big way, speak to us and we can suggest ways in which you can get a similar look for less, including opting for a smaller centre stone or selecitng a diamond that is slightly further down the scale for clarity or colour.
If your heart is set on a surprise proposal, don’t let the fact that you don’t know her ring size deter you. There are various ways to find out her size without her knowing, including asking her friends for help and drawing round a ring that she already owns and wears on the same finger. Print out an online ring-sizing guide, compare the diameter of the ring you have drawn round and you should have a pretty accurate idea of her size. If you are still unsure, we advise to size up, rather than down, since resizing is then easier to do and it guarantees the ring will fit on her finger when you propose.
