Six Fundamental Mistakes When Selecting THE Ring...
Now that we are in the Holiday Season, Chanukah is well underway and Christmas is right around the corner, couples young and old are getting engaged. This is what, we in the wedding industry, call "Engagement Season". Buying an engagement ring can be a bit overwhelming, or so I hear. I have never bought one so I turned to my wonderful husband on what advice he might have for a gentleman buying THE ring. He directed me to the Robbins Brother's website, http://www.robbinsbros.com/. They are "The World's Largest Engagement Ring Store" and are very helpful when it comes to educating their clients on pick the best ring.
Here are some of the mistakes Robbins Brothers advises to avoid, when selecting a ring:
1. Don't buy a ring without the Manufacturer's Trademark stamp.
2. Beware of gold that may be under-karated, even if it's stamped.
3. Beware of buying a diamond that may be fracture-filled to temporarily hide inclusions or laser-drilled to remove dark inclusions.
5. Beware of buying a diamond of lower clarity than promised.
For more tips and a fabulous selection of engagement rings, visit The World's Largest Engagment Ring Store, Robins Brothers. They have retail stores located in Dallas (close to the Dallas Galleria, off of the North Dallas Tollway, 14080 Dallas Pkwy. Dallas, TX 75240) and Arlington, if you live in the great state of Texas and in Southern California. My husband got my ring at the Dallas location and we HIGHLY recommend them. The staff was very helpful.
This is a very important purchase, she will wear this for many years to come, hopefully the rest of her life. Be sure to get the best quality for your money. Personally, I would prefer quality over the size of a diamond.
Best Wishes,
