You always hear the saying goes "diamonds are forever", but are all diamonds created equal? The answer to that is an emphatic, 'no'! When shopping for your diamond engagement ring or diamond rings as your ultimate wedding rings, there are four characteristics to notice. These four characteristics will help you determine the quality of each stone, allowing you to make a more discerning decision than, 'Mmm… Pretty…'

First of all, there's the color of the diamond. Diamonds pick up different tones when elements such as nitrogen or boron mix with the carbon when they are formed. The outcome are diamonds with a yellow or blue caste to them. Colorless diamonds are rare, and most expensive.

Next in line is the carat. This is the stone's weight and refers to its size as well. One carat is one-fifth of a gram or 1/142 of an ounce. A carat is divided into 100 points, so a 1/2 carat diamond is 0.5 carats. well, women are good at this, the bigger the better and they will call it the best wedding rings.

Third, check out the cut of the rock. This term refers to the diamond's proportions, symmetry and finish. This is referred to as the polish.
