L`amour Engagement Ring

Raj G

I was all set to buy a ring from a well known UK high street chain, not knowing anything much about diamonds. I just happened to stumble across 1791 Diamonds whilst searching Yahoo, and I'm glad I did. Their website was very informative about the 4 C's and showed me what I ought to have been looking at. I found a gorgeous ring and then picked my own diamond to put in it, having weighed up all the options. It turns out that although I've spent roughly the same as I would have in the high street shop, I have a much better diamond in terms of colour, clarity and cut. The staff at 1791 are very helpful indeed, and keep you informed of what's going on.

They also offer a free re-sizing service which is included in the price of your ring. All in all, I was very impressed with the whole experience, particularly as they met a very tight deadline in getting the finished product to me. Oh, and of course the most important thing...? She said "yes", and absolutely LOVED the ring.

We both really love the ring and couldn't have asked for anything more perfect - it looks stunning on her. I often

catch her staring into it unaware of everything around her ha ha. Amazingly enough it was a perfect fit too, it doesn't need resizing, which just goes to show how well co-ordinated you and your fellow employees are to plan and design a ring over an email.

Perfectly named to capture the essence of this design, L'amour, from 1791 Diamonds' Signature Collection, features a beautiful heart shaped diamond; the symbol of love.

The various different aspects of diamond design are important when considering what style of diamond engagement ring will best suit your beloved (familiarise yourself with the 4Cs of diamonds) and diamond shape is a decidedly personal consideration. A diamond must suit the wearer's personality and the heart shaped diamond is a particularly feminine shape. Needing little in the way of embellishment, this simple design will appeal to the old fashioned romantic, the fancy shaped diamond leaving little doubt about the message this ring represents.

Colour (one of the 4Cs, as above) is an especially important factor when it comes to fancy shaped diamonds; it can be very visible in heart shaped diamonds. Diamond colour is measured on a scale from "D" (colourless) to "Z" (bright yellow) with the colourless diamonds generally being the most desirable. 1791 Diamonds use D-F in their Signature range with L'amour in particular featuring a D colour diamond. This is testament to 1791 Diamonds' guarantee to only use beautiful, high quality diamonds.

L'amour is perfectly complemented by a band of either 18kt yellow gold, 18kt white gold or platinum, according to your preference.
