The glamorous accent of white gold with diamonds is not as traditional as yellow gold but  at that special moment of your engagement it still produces the tears of joy. Diamonds have the ability to accent any piece of jewelry and with while gold they are dazzling.  An experienced designer can customize any ring just by changing the cut of the diamond to reflect the ring setting whether it be white or yellow gold, or even a combination of the two.   If you want to do the classic and traditional, get yellow gold, but if you want to look  chic and modern, your choice is white gold. Get the best out of  your engagement moment with glamorous white gold and diamonds.

White gold is actually a combination of yellow gold  with other white metals. The best white gold is a combination of 18 carat yellow gold and palladium.  This is the combination that best suits larger stones and diamonds.  Lesser values of gold such as 14 carat does not possess the ability to reflect the light of whatever stones you choose.  Comparing the 18 carat palladium mix with lesser gold content is like comparing apples to oranges.  One of the newer processes is taking a lesser carat of gold and covering it with rhodium.  Rhodium has to ability to be polished to a very high luster, but sometimes the process requires being re-coated after a few years.

Diamonds as we all know are the hardest known substance in the world and because of this quality and their ability to reflect any light they are highly sought after.  Of course all diamonds are not the same, some are classified as industrial grade which means that they are used in industry to sharpen steel and to cut stone products.  These diamonds are still expensive but not compared to those used in jewelry.  Diamond pricing depends so much upon the diamond’s  size, weight, clarity, and purity.   When comparing diamond ring sets the best method is to see rings side by side.  We of course want to get our money’s worth, but when it comes down to the choice it is just what the person likes.   Is a diamond wedding set an investment? Does its value affect our financial life? If gold prices go up or down does it somehow affect us?  The answer to these questions are for you to decide.  We are talking about your wedding rings not the property down the street, buy what makes you feel good after all wedding rings are something that you will wear your whole life, hopefully.
