By: AD&G Editorial Team Reading time : 5 min
Choosing the perfect engagement ring is a profound gesture of love... but also a significant decision that can raise doubts. The risk of making mistakes—in choosing the diamond, the design, or the size—is real.
In this article, Atelier Diamanti e Gioielli guides you step by step to avoid the most common mistakes and choose a ring that best tells your love story.
1. Not knowing the tastes of your loved one
One of the most common mistakes? Choosing a ring without considering the style of the person receiving it.
Solution:
Look at what jewelry she usually wears:
- White, yellow or rose gold?
- Minimalist or vintage design?
- Discreet or showy stones?
You can also ask someone close to you for advice : a sister, a best friend, or… take a look at their Pinterest board!
2. Ignoring the 4Cs of diamond
Cut, Color, Clarity and Carat: the famous 4Cs determine the quality and value of the diamond .
Solution:
Trust only GIA or IGI certified diamonds, like those offered by Atelier Diamanti e Gioielli. Our team will help you find the perfect balance between beauty, budget, and authenticity .
3. Getting the ring size wrong
A perfect ring but… too large or too small can ruin the proposal moment.
Solution:
Bring a ring she already wears on her left ring finger or try an online ring sizer . And remember: Atelier Diamanti offers free post-purchase sizing .
4. Choose a model that is only “fashionable”
Follow trends, of course. But the engagement ring is an eternal symbol , not a seasonal accessory.
Solution:
Opt for a design that truly represents the couple . Whether it's a solitaire, a trilogy, or a halo, every ring we make is customizable , unique, and timeless.
5. Purchasing from uncertified resellers
Buying online or in non-specialist shops may mean receiving a non-certified or low-quality product .
Solution:
Choose a certified artisan jewelry store. At Atelier Diamanti, we offer handmade rings with select materials and traceable diamonds.
