Men's diamond rings
It is accepted that jewelry is faithful and unchanging companions of the fair sex. However, there are many different types of jewelry that are only suitable for men. Among such products, the leading positions in popularity are occupied by rings. But not just ordinary rings made of precious metals, but rings encrusted with diamonds. A diamond is not an ordinary stone. It has its own history.
Jewelers call a diamond a stone that has a "soul" and "character". Men's diamond rings are stylish and original jewelry.
Previously, it was believed that only aristocrats could afford such a precious stone. Today, unfortunately, not every person can buy or order from the master. The better the quality and the larger the carat of the stone, the higher the final price of the jewelry.
Unlike women, men are not so spoiled by the assortment of jewelry. Therefore, each product looks stylish and elegant. Men's rings with precious stones are made taking into account the nature and strength of the representatives of the strong half of humanity.
Peculiarities
Not every man likes to attract attention with jewelry. It even sounds somehow ridiculous: a man and an ornament.However, jewelry for the stronger sex has a special style and energy. Therefore, one or a maximum of two options should be chosen, which will emphasize character, willpower, purposefulness and status in society.
A diamond ring is exactly the option that meets all of the above criteria. Whether it's a strict business suit or an elegant evening tuxedo, a casual bow, characteristic of casual or romantic style - a diamond encrusted in precious metal will complement any look, and in combination with sapphire and onyx it will become even more sophisticated.
Every person should have a zest. Probably everyone has heard this phrase more than once. Someone calls some character trait a highlight, while someone focuses on individual details of their appearance. A diamond ring can be safely called a peculiar highlight of any male image. Such a piece of jewelry emphasizes maturity, wealth, determination, self-confidence and capabilities, as well as the harmony of the inner and outer world of a man.
How to choose
Every person at least once in his life faced with the problem of choosing one or another piece of jewelry. Probably, many have had such cases when, having visited a jewelry store with a strong desire to purchase some kind of product, but, confused among the variety of goods offered, you leave empty-handed.
In order for this to happen as rarely as possible, you need to initially think about what you really want, be sure to try on the jewelry, look at its passport, clarify points of interest with sales consultants.

Stone Features
A diamond is a very expensive pleasure that not everyone can afford. Therefore, you should choose products with diamonds thoughtfully and carefully, it is better to familiarize yourself with the main criteria for choosing a precious stone in advance. What is a diamond? Why is it valued several times higher than other gems?
A diamond is a diamond, a specially cut diamond. The peculiarity of the stone is that the light gets inside and does not pass through, but exits through other faces. As a result, a feeling is created that the stone does not just shine, but plays with light. Such overflows look very beautiful in jewelry, so diamond jewelry is quite expensive.
To assess the quality of a precious stone, the so-called “4 C” system is used:
- Purity and transparency.
- Cut (the shape of the cut can be either standard round with 57 facets, or fancy, in particular, in the form of an oval, rectangle, heart, pear, square, and other options).
- Color (colorless, yellowish, greenish, a combination of shades of yellow and green, brown, in color gradation from light gray to black, fantasy, among which shades of blue, orange and pink are considered the most common).
- The weight of a stone is measured in carats. According to the weight value, there are three types of diamonds: small (less than 0.29 carats), medium (0.30 - 0.99 carats) and large (over 1 carat). Stones weighing more than 5 carats are sold at auctions. And diamonds weighing 25 carats and above even have their own names.
Types of rings
The range of men's rings with precious stones is not as rich in variety as, for example, the range of jewelry for women. Men's diamond rings are presented in four categories:
wedding
Wedding or engagement jewelry is most in demand among men. Such a ring is worn every day, so it is better to look at a more delicate and sophisticated model that will look harmoniously on the ring finger of the right hand. Also in great demand in the past few years are paired rings, which are either completely identical or made in the same style.
seals
Signets are very original jewelry. Often they have a unique pattern and an interesting composition of stones. Previously, such rings served as a kind of seal, from which the name of the product came.
rings
A wide and high massive ring, complemented by an original pattern of stones or one large stone - this is how rings usually look. Models with engravings on both the inner and outer edges of the product are also considered fashionable.
Pinky rings
This category is not so popular among contemporaries. Only a few men like jewelry of this kind.
How to spot a fake diamond
Unfortunately, jewelry has always attracted the attention of not only admirers of the beautiful and unusual, but also scammers. Not always a person is able to afford to buy a diamond ring. And suddenly, a “good Samaritan” appears on the horizon, who offers an incredibly beautiful “exclusive” jewelry for half the price. Underestimated cost is the first sign of doubting the authenticity of the metal and stone of the product.
If everything is more or less simpler with precious metals, there must be a sample, but with stones there are a little more difficulties.
How to identify a fake diamond in a product?
- A real diamond is accompanied by a passport, in which all the characteristics of the stone are indicated to the smallest detail.
- By immersing a piece of jewelry in ordinary water, a real diamond becomes transparent and invisible, while a fake one acquires a dull white hue.
- Sandpaper will not leave any marks on a real stone, while a fake will be scratched and rough.
- If a diamond is substituted under the light of a quartz lamp, it will shine with a yellow-greenish or light blue radiance.
Care Tips
Any decoration requires care. Jewelry with precious stones is no exception.
To make the product sparkle and shimmer with lights, you only need to wipe it once a month with a soap solution in which ammonia is diluted. The recommended proportion is 250 ml of soap solution and 6 drops of alcohol. After that, the decoration must be wiped with a cloth.
By adhering to some rules, you can extend the "life" of any jewelry:
- When working with various abrasive products (even if hands are in gloves), it is better to remove the ring. Even with normal daily hygiene procedures, it is recommended to remove jewelry from fingers.
- Bath, sauna, beach are not the best places to display jewelry. Sweat has a negative effect on precious metals, oxidizing them.
When choosing jewelry, listen to your feelings and emotions. There is an opinion that a person is able to feel harmony with his metal and precious stone.
