Many among us would question the choice of
a diamond ring or band for a man. But it all depends upon what the wearer
wants. So, if you have embarked on this new phase of life with your partner and
are looking to find the perfect diamond wedding band for your D-day, you should
keep certain things in your mind.
Though one spends a lot of time deciding on
the wedding ring or band, the focus is primarily on the appearance of the
wedding ring. Besides aesthetics, few more factors such as profile and texture
must be kept in mind. Here are some aspects of diamond wedding bands.
The shape of the Wedding Bands
The various profiles include flat ring,
classic court, flat court, and D-shape ring. Flat rings are comfortable to wear
but can get stuck on machinery and clothing. As is evident from its name, flat
rings are flat both on the inside and the outside. The most common of these is
the classic court ring, circular on the inside and the outside. The flat court
diamond wedding rings strike a balance between the flat and the classic court
ring. The exterior of the ring is flat, and the interior is round. The exterior
of the D-shape ring is thin and circular. It is flat on the inside, thus
offering a near-perfect fit.
Finish and Polish
Brides and grooms should also pay attention
to the polish and the finish of the diamond wedding bands. The diamonds engraved
comprise two significant aspects. These are symmetry and polish. The polish of
the stone depends upon the manufacturing process. Once the stone is cut and
faceted, it is then polished and finished for a smooth appearance. If not done
precisely, the polish can hurt the diamond’s sparkle. There is a polish and
symmetry scale for measuring the diamond’s quality.
Kinds of Diamond Setting
The setting of the diamonds on the ring has
a crucial role to play when it comes to the final appearance of the diamond
wedding bands.
Pave Setting: This kind of setting is a beaded one and
makes one believe that there are a significant number of diamonds. This type of
setting often comes with a mill grain edge to make it appear kind of vintage.
Channel Setting: Several diamonds are placed in a
channel-shaped hole.
Tension Setting: In this kind of setting, the diamond
appears to be kind of floating. This setting uses the natural inclination of
the metal to go back or spring back to its actual position.
Roman Setting: In this kind of setting, a diamond is
placed in a single hole.
Fancy Setting: In this setting, the diamond appears to
be floating. The effect is well-achieved by cutting away channels.
So, make sure to pick any diamond wedding
bands you like and flaunt the same on the most important day of your
life.
