Top 5 Engagement Ring Myths

Engagement rings have always been a cherished tradition to signify the beginning of a beautiful union between two people. You can always purchase other diamond or gemstone jewelry, but diamond rings are reserved and revered as the most desired form of jewelry to mark engagements. This tradition, however, comes with a variety of myths. So, let’s take an in-depth look at some of the myths surrounding this auspicious jewelry.

Well, despite what everyone may think, diamonds aren't indestructible. Even though they have the highest score on the Mohs hardness scale, they can, in fact, crack or chip when struck at the right angle with just the right amount of force. This is, of course, no reason to avoid a beautiful diamond engagement ring, rather it is simply advisable to take off your diamond ring safely when working or making use of your hands during extreme activities. 

This is an outdated tradition that served people well for the time being. Now, you can be as creative as you want, as there are vast opportunities to create your unique look with various precious metals and styles. 

The fixation on having a diamond center stone in your engagement ring is not for everyone. Some other great options like sapphire, morganite, and salt and pepper diamonds have become an extremely popular way for couples to express their individuality. It is best to go with whatever suits your desire and style, whether diamond or otherwise!

For ages, an engagement ring and a surprise proposal have been synonymous. It may be a romantic gesture, but it's better when you get them the ring of their dreams! Choosing a ring that suits their  personality, style, and preference is always the best choice. Have a conversation, take notice of your future fiancee’s social media, or listen when they show you something they like. Don't worry; the actual proposal will still be a surprise!
