Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and we’re not-so-secretly hoping for a romantic proposal.
To help Cupid on his way, we’ve found 20 sparkling stunners that would look right at home on a certain ring finger. And if your beau needs a shove in the right direction, these words of wisdom from Tiffany & Co. will come in handy (you might want to leave this page open on a certain someone's computer...).
How to pick the perfect engagement ring:
- Have you discussed her taste in rings? If not, look at her clothes and jewellery for clues.
- Try her best friend or her sister for ideas. Even better, take them shopping with you.
- Ask questions. The jeweller can tell you about the 4 Cs (carat weight, clarity, colour and cut), history, lifetime warranties and ethical sourcing.
- Know your budget and ask about financing options.
- For a classic ring, a solitaire is a popular choice. For something more daring, experiment with shapes or stones.
- Can the ring be exchanged? Perhaps your new fiancée can find her perfect piece post-proposal.
- If you’re buying vintage and can’t find what you want, ask the jeweller to look out for something similar, or point you towards other options.
- Rings can be resized, but Tiffany has an app to help you get it right the first time.
