Getting engaged is one of the most exciting things to occur in an individual's life. It means the start of a commitment designed to last a lifetime... the beginning of a family... a symbol of enduring love. While some bridegrooms prefer to surprise their brides-to-be with a spectacular diamond, others prefer shopping for engagement rings with their betrothed in tow.
Before you make the all-important decision of which ring to buy, it's a smart idea to know the what different colors of diamonds mean. That way, you can choose one that has special symbolic significance for the two of you.
The Creative Pink Colored Diamond
For instance, a pink diamond is one of the world's rarest diamonds, so it is highly prized. The "natural pink fancy" is a pink diamond that has been formed by natural processes. As a result, a pink diamond engagement ring can be quite an expensive expression of affection--a light pink Agra diamond recently sold at auction for nearly seven million dollars.
It has been said that pink diamonds promote creative expression. Therefore, they are the perfect diamond for a woman for a creative bent, such as a writer or dancer. Consequently, it's not surprising that pink diamonds are so beloved.
The Thoughtful and Considerate Yellow Diamond
But what if you want to convey the idea that your bride is thoughtful and considerate? Diamond experts say the yellow diamond is the perfect choice. Meanwhile, if you want to promote peace and serenity in your communications with your new bride, consider a blue diamond. The blue diamond is also associated with the concept of good health.
The Strength and Stability of a Red Colored Diamond
If though, you believe your bride is a source of strength for you and represents stability in your life, invest in a red diamond. The red diamond is also considered to be a major stress-reliever--meaning that it could be helpful to your emotional well-being during your marriage.
By selecting a diamond that goes with your bride's personality, you are making a powerful statement: You love not only your beloved bride, but everything she represents. If you select the right diamond, chances are your bride will treasure it always as the ultimate symbol of your love and affection.
