Though there are many options available for the couples, but diamond solitaire engagement rings are still the preferred choices of a lot of couples due to the elegance and simplicity linked with the rings.
There is only one diamond placed on the top of the ring, so that the stone is clearly visible. While there are no other stones studded on the surface of the ring, the solitaire diamond gets all the concentration of the onlookers.
It is desirable to select a larger diamond so that it dominates over the ring even more. As far as shape of solitaires is concerned, round is the popular shape for the diamond.
Other designs like marquise, emerald, pear and oval are also preferred and can appear larger on the diamond engagement rings.
Prong setting is usually the choice of the couples when they go shopping for the solitaires. But other settings such as bezel, flush and tension are also the choices that the couples can make.
The diamond must be purchased only after ensuring its good quality of color, cut, clarity and carat weight must also be known to the buyers. The overall cost of these rings remains reasonable for most of the couples because there is one diamond to be purchased.
