Do engagement rings have personalities? If engagement rings did not have personalities, then perhaps we could not categorize them as unique engagement rings. In fact, many engagement ring experts believe that black diamond engagement rings have a very distinct personality and that non-diamond engagement rings lack personality. This leads us to the culmination of personality in the context of engagement rings – Italian engagement rings. While the notion that non-diamond engagement have no personality is questionable at best, few can argue about the voracious character of Italian engagement rings. This issue of DT Era focuses on what your current engagement ring says about you or what your soon to be engagement ring may say to those around you.
We start our analysis from the foundation of personality as it relates to engagement rings – unique engagement rings. The characteristics that set one engagement apart from the other is what makes it unique. Similarly, the characteristics that set a group of engagement rings apart from mainstream engagement rings is what warrants their placement in a unique engagement rings section. In addition, have you ever heard the statement, “this engagement ring is way out there”, referring to its bold and unorthodox design? How about the statement, “this is a really exclusive engagement ring…it reeks of sophistication”? We have heard both of these statements, and we view both of them as responses to the personalities of unique engagement rings.
Analyzing personalities of black diamond engagement rings is even more fascinating because the mere presence of black diamonds in an engagement ring forms a personality in and of itself, independent of the actual design. Black diamond engagement rings render somewhat of a peculiar, festively sinister aura, which, in some ways, challenges the symbolic foundation of engagement rings. For some people, a black diamond engagement ring may reflect mourning, but for others, a black diamond engagement ring offers a modified perception of happiness, consistent with their personalities and appropriate for the occasion.
Non-diamond engagement rings serve as the biggest surprise when it comes to personality. And while many contend that non diamond engagement rings lack personality, our observations suggest otherwise. Although diamonds certainly add a component of sophistication, so do gemstones and, with the proper craftsmanship, cubic zirconia. Few can argue that a non-diamond engagement ring featuring a sapphire, ruby or emerald has the potential to exude character and sophistication, but selling the idea that cubic zirconia engagement rings can exude similar sophistication is only possible with the demonstration of the proper cz engagement ring designs. The rule of thumb we use is that stones and metals are nothing more than tools, and how they are arranged is what renders the personality of any given engagement ring. This implies that, with the appropriate arrangement, non-diamond engagement rings have just as much potential for character and sophistication as diamond engagement rings.
The culmination of our discussion on the personality of engagement rings involves a category that exists on a different plane altogether – Italian engagement rings. Not only do Italian engagement rings systematically exhibit complex personalities, challenging the personality of an Italian engagement ring is like battling an alligator in the water – next to impossible. For most master jewelers in Italy, engagement rings are a byproduct of a life event or an emotional encounter, where all of this powerful energy is transmuted into the design and production of the respective Italian engagement ring. For this and other reasons, even seemingly rudimentary engagement rings undergo major revisions in Italy, rendering exquisite Italian solitaire engagement rings, halo engagement rings and even Italian three-stone trilogy engagement rings, as well as other engagement ring designs that would normally fall into the mainstream.
Discussing engagement ring personality is a daring endeavor, mainly because of how abstract the topic is. After all, the personality of each engagement ring or lack thereof is subject to interpretation, and every person you ask will offer a different perspective. The purpose of this issue is to help our readers think in terms of engagement ring personality. For those currently searching for engagement rings, our goal is to assist you in evaluating the engagement rings you come across in terms of personality, as one way to determine whether or not a given engagement ring is the right fit.
