Apart from a huge difference in the price range from a brand new
ring, this
ring will also offer a vintage look to the sparkler. If you go for a new
diamond engagement ring with vintage-inspired
designs, the price range will be double or triple when compared to secondhand
diamond rings offering the same looks.
At the same time, you must be very vigilant while choosing these
rings. The main thing that you must keep in mind while choosing secondhand
diamond rings is its quality. Moreover, make sure to get the
ring appraised from a trustworthy gemologist before purchasing it, especially if the
ring is a decade old piece. This is because the factors that were used to determine the quality of a
diamond ring a decade ago might not be the same now.
Another thing that you must consider, if you want the secondhand
diamond engagement ring to look as good as a new one, is the cut grade of the
ring. The traditional
diamond ring usually features the shallow or deep
cut that passes the light rather than reflecting it resulting in only a subtle sparkle. If you want a sparkly
diamond, it is better to go with the
princess cut,
round brilliant cut, etc.
