If you are looking for
diamond rings that appear larger than its actual size, go for one featuring a
princess cut diamond or other fancy shaped

diamond rings often think that the bigger the
diamond is, the better its value goes; yet you need to consider its clarity as well to make the most of the purchase. In fact, the larger the

engagement ring featuring 1 carat
diamond or more with SI2 clarity grade, you have to ensure it is “eye-clean.” That is because you will not able to see the birthmarks of the
gem from the top down if it is eye-clean. This is to say that it has no visible birthmarks. Although they do exist in the SI2
diamond, inclusions can be seen through a 10x magnification glass or loupe.
