Metals you can choose for your diamond engagement ring

Buying a diamond engagement ring is not an easy task. Firstly you have to choose a diamond of your choice and budget and then a setting on which you can fix that diamond. Setting plays a vital role in the look of a diamond engagement ring. A perfect setting turned a normal diamond into a beautiful ring. 

 There are many types of setting as per the diamond shape you choose in the market. But for those settings you need to choose the metal first. A perfect metal can increase the shine of the ring and beauty of your finger. You can choose the metal according to your choice among white gold, rose gold, yellow gold & platinum.

 Here is the detail information on metal type:

 White Gold:

 White gold metal looks like its name suggests white gold but it is an alloy of gold and other metals like palladium & silver. The mixture of other metal gives it a great strength and amazing shine. White gold is one of the widely used metals for diamond engagement rings because it suits with all the settings and finger color. For engagement rings, white gold is one of the mostly used metals. It looks great with all the diamond ring settings.

  Rose Gold:

 Rose is a symbol of love and it depicts the color of love. It could be the best choice for your diamond ring. Like white gold, rose gold is also an alloy and contains other metals to give it great strength. Rose color suits best with both colorful stones and simple diamond rings. In European countries, people like to buy 18k gold on the other hand, in USA, people prefer less carat gold to buy with other alloy for just a fashion statement and budget.

 Yellow Gold:

 Yellow gold is the original color of the gold and it is flexible to fit in your finger easily. It looks great with shiny diamonds and in all the major diamond settings. If you love gold color then yellow gold could be the best choice for you. It almost looks like the natural gold color gives the best combination of gold & diamond in a diamond engagement ring.

 Platinum:

 In recent times, platinum has become a very popular choice for a ring, either diamond or normal wedding ring. Because of its hard strength, shine and its amazing metal quality, platinum ring can remain with your lifetime without losing its charm, shine and beauty. Although because of its quality, it is costlier than other metal but for better strength and long life, it could be the best for you.

Although all the setting metal colors are beautiful and looks amazing but you can choose the best one according to your budget. However, the cost of metal is based on its market rate and carat weight. The heavier the metal the costlier the metal is. The price for Rose gold, yellow gold and white gold metals are almost same. In case of platinum, you need to pay a little more because of its metal properties.
