Pink Diamond Engagement Ring

Many who are not familiar with diamonds will immediately think of a diamond engagement ring as a colorless brilliant stone that varies in size. For those who know better must be familiar with different attractive colors of diamonds as well, especially the pink diamond engagement ring, which became popular when Ben Affleck gave his the ladylove Jennifer Lopez a magnificent six carat pink diamond engagement ring.

Diamonds are popular choices for engagement rings, but these diamonds are more expensive when they come in non traditional colors other than the colorless one. A pink diamond engagement ring will truly leave your loved one in awe.

Most of the supply of the world's pink diamond come from Argyle mine in Australia, usually these types of diamonds come in different hues like light pink, salmon or rose but the darker the hue becomes, the more expensive the diamond is. Because of the rarity of these diamonds, a smaller cut pink diamond engagement ring is far costly than a colorless engagement ring with bigger carats.

Another factor that adds to the cost of this type of engagement ring is the cut of the diamond itself. Because pink diamonds are really hard to find, an expert jewelry designer would painstakingly create a most magnificent and intricate cut suitable for a pink diamond.

And lastly, the clarity and quality of the diamond is also to consider for its cost. Like the ordinary colorless diamond, or whatever color it may be, the diamond should be free from chips, cuts or imperfections.

To judge the clarity of the diamond, when you look in the stone, you should be able to somehow look right through it, like a see through glass. It should be free from any appearance of cloudiness.

A lot of women today have the pink diamond engagement ring a more popular choice than the ordinary colorless diamond engagement ring.
