The Perfect Gift - Black Diamond Rings

Edgy, exquisite and exotic – three words that can be used to describe black diamond rings. As this gem continues it's increase in popularity, top name designers are using them in all their jewelry, from rings to pendants, and even integrated into items of clothing. People are finding that this beautiful stone will make a statement all on its own, but when combined with a white gold or yellow gold setting, it is truly unique. Black diamonds are mined in Brazil and the Central African Republic.

 

Many couples getting ready to walk down the aisle are looking for something a bit different and are turning to black diamond rings. Usually the bride will pair her black diamond with smaller colorless diamonds that will make a big statement. The groom tends to go for smaller black diamonds that are inserted into a traditional band; although some men will prefer one single large black diamond. Of course, these beautiful black diamond rings are not just for a bride and groom. Choose a stunning design that looks great with business or casual wear and imagine how exotic it would be to wear on your finger to a cocktail party.

 

If you are searching for the perfect gift for a friend, family member or loved one, black diamond rings are exquisite when paired with precious stones other than diamonds. They are truly beautiful surrounded by blue sapphires, rubies, or emeralds. The contrast between a black diamond and a white or pink pearl is stunning. When is the person’s birthday? Combine a black diamond with their birthstone. Or give your spouse or significant other a beautiful black diamond ring in the shape of a heart for an anniversary or Valentine’s Day. Combine it with a ruby (or even a semi-precious garnet) for the holidays. The possibilities really are endless. And what woman doesn’t love receiving a sparkly token of your affection.

 

When choosing black diamond rings, look at the same considerations as when choosing a colorless diamond ring; color, clarity, carat and cut. Most black diamonds are treated by exposing them to high heat. Some come out of the ground a very dark midnight black, but these are quite rare. They should look glossy and sparkling and have no chips or cracks. Black diamonds are heavier than other diamonds, so a one carat black diamond will look somewhat smaller than a traditional diamond. Most black diamonds will have a simple cut of sixteen facets and the surface should be smooth. A well cut diamond will have an amazing brilliance and fire.

 

Whether you enjoy black diamond rings that stand alone or that are combined with other stones, you are sure to find an appealing and beautiful ring for yourself or a loved one.  Black diamond rings are a luxurious ring that will make a powerful and dramatic statement and will truly be one of a kind!
