These stunning women said «yes» to colored gemstones.
Round cut white diamond solitaire is an ageless classic. Nevertheless, fancy colored stones in engagement rings are bold, bright and individualistic – and also incredibly beautiful.
The range of colored stones seems to be unlimited: from blues and greens to peachy tones, from vivid yellows to pale pink shades. Choosing a colored stone for an engagement ring, you need to take into account a few things. Check how it looks on your skin, pay attention to its durability (if it is not a diamond), think about the style of your perfect ring and its setting, consider all the possible options for stones of the color you’re interested in. For example, if you are looking for a yellow gem, then you can consider both a yellow diamond and a yellow sapphire.
However, the main thing is to remember that your engagement ring has to be all about you. If you need help, you can always use our Mad Advisor service.
