Comprehensive Services for Engagement Rings in Houston, TX

When you shop for an engagement ring, you only expect to do it once. As such, it’s important to begin the process with as much information as possible. Undertaking the shopping process when you know exactly what you’re looking for can make the experience as easy and painless as possible. Whether you’re just beginning the process or looking to upgrade an existing engagement ring, doing your research and making a plan in advance can make a big difference. Here is what to know before you visit us: 

• Determine Your Budget: One of the biggest mistakes you can make when shopping for engagement rings is to go over your budget and spend more than you intend. Our team can help you make decisions about carats, metal types, and cuts to keep the pricing affordable. If you have a specific style in mind, plan your budget accordingly.
• Learn About Diamonds: Research diamond shapes, cuts, and settings to give yourself the best foundation of knowledge when you begin shopping. Different settings are best suited to different diamond shapes, metals, and designs; mix and match to determine your preferences.
• Have a Design in Mind: Whether you’ve asked your significant other directly, gotten some ideas from her loved ones, or you’re beginning the process yourself, it’s very helpful to have a rough idea of what you’re looking for. This gives you an excellent starting point when you reach out to us. 
• Consider Wedding Bands: It might seem like you’re putting the cart before the horse if you’re considering wedding rings before proposing, but it makes perfect sense. Many engagement rings come with matching wedding bands to complete the set and fit snugly against the engagement ring. Going in with a preference for a matching set can also help you narrow down your choices. 
• Consider Her Personality: Choosing an engagement ring can be very stressful because of ever-changing trends. Keep in mind that this is a purchase that will last a lifetime. Look for a ring that reflects your beloved’s personality and you’ll never need to worry about it going out of style.

Choose the perfect gemstone(s) for your engagement ring.

When it comes to engagement rings, the classic diamond is usually the best route for the featured gemstone. There are many different factors that go into rating a diamond, such as shape, color, and clarity. Engagement rings featuring multiple gemstones will help create a truly unique piece of jewelry. If you want the engagement ring you select to stand out in its own unique way, you can speak with one of our store representatives about creating custom settings, or including other non-traditional stones and design elements. While diamonds are usually the way to go when purchasing an engagement ring, it is important to try and find something your partner will cherish for the remainder of your lives together.

Choosing your precious metal.

Yellow gold has been the classic standard for many years, while white gold and rose gold have recently become very popular. If you are looking for the next level of precious metals, platinum is much more durable and rare but more expensive.

What engagement ring styles  are best?

This really depends on personal preference. 

• Antique is perfect for someone who appreciates vintage jewelry styles, drawing designs from the beautiful Victorian, Art Deco, and Retro eras of jewelry design.
  
• Classic is ideal for someone that loves traditional, yet elegant ring styles, crafted with designs that understand beauty and elegance. 
  
• Modern engagement rings are perfect for someone that loves to stay up with current trends and enjoys a sleek and exciting style. With contemporary design elements, modern rings offer fresh settings from others.
  

What about custom engagement rings?

Collaborating with our expert designers for an engagement ring is the perfect way to showcase your creativity and give a truly unique gift. While this process can sometimes be more expensive, it can also help save you money by being able to choose exactly what types of gemstones and metals are used to create the ring.
