Chances are that this will be the one and only time
that you purchase a wedding ring.
The irony is that most of us try to do it without any
knowledge or experience.
This is where Shawn Steinle
comes in.
Shawn summarizes
over 16 years of jewelry business experience in
which he has helped over 1700 men and women pick-out
and buy their wedding ring.
In this interview
you will learn
what you need to know about buying a wedding ring AND
how to find the perfect ring for the perfect price.
|
So what are some factors
that first time buyers need to think about?
|
|
Lots of them...
|
First of all you will hear about
the 4 C's when you start shopping for diamonds.
The 4 C's are:
1. Carat
2. Cut
3. Clarity
4. Color
Below is a more information about
each one
|
Carat
This is how much a diamond weighs. Obviously the more
it weighs the bigger its size.
Note: Diamonds are
measured in Carats and gold is
measured in Karats.
|
|
|
One carat weighs
.20 grams. But since diamonds are
natural stones and almost never come
out in nice round numbers like 1.00
carat, jewelers use "points."One point = 1/100th
of a carat or another way of looking
at it is 1 carat = 100 points.
So if a diamond
weighs 0.86 carat, you can say with
great expertise that it weighs 86
points.
Above is a chart that
will give you an idea of the
relationship between carat weight and
size. The prices below will give you a
guideline
- 0.5 carat,
$1,500
- 1.0 carat,
$5,000
- 1.5 carat,
$8,700
- 2.0 carat,
$13,000
- 3.0 carat,
$22,000

Cut
This the
diamond's shape. The most popular
shapes are the round cut and oval
cut. Other cuts include the
emerald cut and the princess cut.
Be sure to look at a variety of cuts
to see which you like best. Keep in mind
that the cut is just as important as
clarity and color in determining a
ring's sparkliness and price tag.
Why is cut so important?
The angles of a diamond's cut
are a play a part in its sparkliness. The more sparkle, the better
the cut and the greater the diamond's
value |
| |
|
| |
|
|
Clarity
A diamond's clarity is the primary
factor in determining its price.
"Clarity" refers to how easily you can
see any imperfections in the diamonds
|
 |
|
Imperfections on the
surface are known as blemishes and those
on the inside are known as inclusions.
Why does it matter?
The fewer
the flaws results in more light reflected
and therefore more
sparkle.
The Gemological Institute of America (GIA),
the organization which sets the
worldwide standards for diamonds, set
up a scale for diamond clarity.
You can check out the scale above.
The scale goes like this: flawless,
internally flawless, VVS1, VVS2, VS1,
VS2, SI1, SI2, I1, I2, I3.
Flawless diamonds mean that you can't
see any imperfections under 10X
magnification, and I3 diamonds are
ones with obvious imperfections.
Which should I get?
Unless you are loaded or want to blow a lot of
cash, get a VS or SI diamond. While
technically imperfect, you cannot tell
these diamonds are flawed unless you
look at them under a microscope.
|
 |
Color
The color of a diamond ranges from
clear (colorless) to a faint yellow.
The more colorless the diamond, the
more expensive it is. There are
exceptions to this rule. Some types of
diamonds do have color--red,
green, blue, etc...
|
|
These can be very expensive
and are traditionally used in
wedding rings.
The
Gemological Institute of America came
up with a scale to grade color. You
can check out the scale above.
The closer you are
to D, the more expensive the rock. For
some reason, the scale starts at D;
there are no A, B, or C diamonds.
Could anyone tell
the difference between a D and a K?
Probably not...so
don't feel compelled to go for the D.

And this is just the
beginning...
