Many a nervous young man has popped the question of marriage to his sweetheart by presenting her with a diamond solitaire ring. This emotion and its magic has been captured innumerable times in films and romantic fiction. A diamond solitaire ring connotes everlasting love and beauty.

A woman feels a great sense of pride when she owns a solitaire diamond. She cannot stop herself from preening in front of the mirror or showing off her priceless possession to one and all. A diamond solitaire ring is most special in a woman’s collection of diamond jewellery because it is the ultimate symbol of romantic love.

The significance of a solitaire is not limited only to romantic love. Modern women do not wait for a man to purchase a diamond for them. A solitaire symbolises the inner strength and beauty of the modern woman who balances work and home, explores all areas of her personality and is precious like a solitaire. Many smart, successful women love to reward themselves with beautiful pieces of jewellery for their hard-won place in the world. So, nothing stops them from going ahead and picking a beautiful diamond solitaire ...
... ring.

Similarly, solitaires have become a favourite gifting option of people who want to express their appreciation and love for a special person, without saying too much. The receiver of a diamond solitaire ring will understand the depth of feelings behind the simple gesture, without having anything explained. This is how precious and significant a diamond solitaire ring is in relationships.

A diamond solitaire ring will typically have a solitary diamond, although sometimes a ring may have a single larger diamond surrounded by much smaller ones. However, the total carat weight of the smaller stones will be insignificant when the current worth and possible future value of a diamond solitaire ring is evaluated. Only the carat weight of the solitaire in the centre of the ring will hold value.

The mesmerising shine and sparkle of a solitaire come from different types of diamond cuts. The Round Cut remains most popular as the solitaire appears larger than its actual carat weight. Other standard stone cuts include - Marquise, Emerald, Cushion, Oval, Princess Trillion, Radiant, Asscher, Pear, Radiant and Heart. When a diamond is certified its cut, carat weight, size, colour, clarity and fluorescence are scrutinised and evaluated.

Keep these aspects in mind while buying your diamond solitaire ring. Do not take the purchase lightly. You will pay a fair amount of money to acquire an enviable piece of jewellery and you deserve the best quality for your money. Remember, if a so-called solitaire ring actually has only small stones making up its design, without any central solitaire of a significant weight, then the total carat weight of the smaller stones will often serve to reduce the ring's overall value.

The search for the perfect diamond solitaire ring can sometimes disappoint a woman and she ends up denying herself the pleasure of owning a beautiful piece. But diamond solitaire rings that are certified can now be purchased online. These rings come with complete quality assurance and guarantee. You do not have to worry about fake products while buying diamond jewellery online. So go ahead; buy a stunning diamond solitaire ring and command attention. Alternatively, gift an exclusively designed ring to a loved one and speak volumes with that gesture of love.
