How does that song go again? “Diamonds are a girl’s best friend?” Well that may have been true when Leo Robin penned the words, but now it’s not necessarily the case. Although diamonds are a popular stone for wedding rings, other stones are quickly catching up in popularity. Let’s take a look at the pros and cons of choosing a different stone for your wedding ring.
In the good old days, wedding rings were almost exclusively adorned with diamonds of any size and shape. As time goes on, many people look for a ring with a unique touch to it, one that will set their wedding ring apart from the crowd. Diamonds come in an exotic array of colors, but let’s not forget other stones that would look just as stunning in a wedding ring. Consider sapphires, rubies, and emeralds. These stones are just as beautiful as diamonds, and they too come in an array of unique shades.
Sapphires
When you hear the word “sapphire,” it is common to think immediately of the color blue. But blue is only one of the many shades sapphires come in. Sapphires are also available in many pastel shades such as lavender, yellow, green, and virtually every other color you can imagine. Any wedding ring would be stunning with the addition of a sapphire, no matter what color.
Rubies
Did you know that rubies and sapphires are actually the same stone? While the sapphire’s calming blue facets invoke a feeling of peace and tranquility, the ruby’s fiery red color symbolizes passion, warmth, and life. A ruby in your wedding ring would draw the eye right into the center of the stone, giving your ring a unique look that makes a bold statement.
Emeralds
Emeralds are fascinating gemstones. They have the most beautiful, most intense and most radiant green that can possibly be imagined. In top quality, fine emeralds are even more valuable than diamonds. The green of the emerald is the color of life and of the springtime, and this unique gemstone would definitely add life to your wedding ring.
So when you go out shopping for that perfect wedding ring, remember that while diamonds may be traditional, a more unique stone can set you apart from the crowd. Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, but sapphires, rubies, and emeralds are her soul mates.
