The
heart-shaped stone at the center of her
ring is a real stunner, especially since it pairs so well with the
platinum band. You might find cheap
heart-shaped diamond engagement rings which emulate the look on this one, but it would take a great deal of searching.
This particular
diamond weighs somewhere around 8
carats, the
solitaire gem is set on a silver
band made of either
platinum or
white gold. Many other celebrities own
engagement rings studded with
heart-shaped stones, such as Gwen Stefani, Rochelle Wiseman, Andrea Hissom, Katie Price, Cheryl Tweedy, and of course, Nicki Minaj.
The
heart shape is a popular one for
solitaire diamonds. While getting a
stone of
this
shape, you need to be paying attention to the symmetry.
Size is important too – something smaller than half a
carat would not look nearly as good when cut in this
shape, especially when it is set among
prongs on a beautiful
band.
