1 Carat Engagement Rings

Shopping for an engagement ring? Consider looking at some 1 carat engagement rings. The one carat solitaire is a classic choice that looks stunning on any woman's finger. One carat is the ideal size because it is not too small or too large. Diamonds that are too small are hard to see and don't sparkle. Diamonds that are too big are often lackluster and may be flawed. And, overly large diamonds look gaudy. The one carat diamond is perfect for any setting and any cut.


There are many different cuts to choose from. The round solitaire is perhaps the most popular style. Other styles include pear, marquise, oval, princess, cushion, emerald and even heart shaped. There is no best cut, as each of these has its own special appeal. The cut of a diamond is a matter of preference, and every woman has her favorite. If you are planning to propose but aren't sure what kind of diamond cut to choose, drop some hints or take your significant other to try on rings. How to do it depends on how much of a surprise you want the proposal to be.

The most popular color for the engagement diamond is white. White diamonds flash with a rainbow of colors when the light hits them if they are cut properly. Diamonds do come in other colors such as yellow, pink and even black. In Victorian times, colored diamonds were all the rage. These days they are available but are much more rare and expensive than white diamonds. One thing you will notice when shopping for any type of diamond is the range of price even for the same carat weight. The price is dependent not only on the diamond size but also the setting, cut, clarity, color and where you shop.

You can find 1 carat engagement rings in any jewelry store as they are a very popular size. These rings are available in platinum, white gold or yellow gold. They are compatible with beautiful ring wraps. A ring wrap fits around the diamond solitaire, flanking it in gemstones. Ring wraps can be diamond, emerald, sapphire, ruby or another type of gemstone. Another place to shop for an engagement ring is the Internet. You are likely to find a wider selection online than you can find in stores.
