When buying a diamond engagement ring, it is best to pair a precious metal band with a contrasting colored diamond. This is owing to the fact that the gemstone will pick up the metal band’s color, which can be more pronounced especially under natural lighting conditions. Like how colored diamonds complements white metal, rose gold complements round cut near-colorless diamonds and diamonds with a tint. If you are buying a diamond and rose gold engagement ring, consider a round diamond that comes under the J to K color scale. The round diamonds that come under that color range will look wonderful on an engagement ring rose gold. Note that diamonds with emerald, princess, or Asscher cut tends to show off the body color more than round cut or round shaped diamonds tend to. That is why it is best to choose a diamond with any of the three cuts that come in the I, J, or K color scale to pair it well with a rose gold metal band. For oval, marquise, radiant, and cushion cut diamonds, as well as fancy shapes such as pear cut and heart-shaped diamonds, I to J color scale is ideal.
