How Do You Choose a Perfect Engagement Ring That Truly Reflects Your Unique Love Story?

Valquère's guide to selecting the ideal engagement ring emphasizes quality lab-grown diamonds certified by respected institutions like IGI. For optimal brilliance, consider diamonds with VVS2/VS1 clarity and E/F color grades. While the global average carat size is 1.00-1.09, your choice should reflect personal preference and budget. Diamond cut significantly affects sparkle, with round brilliant and princess cuts being popular choices. The setting and precious metal—white gold, yellow gold, or platinum—should complement your partner's lifestyle and taste. For those seeking something truly distinctive, Valquère offers custom designs crafted by Antwerp artisans, ensuring your ring becomes a meaningful symbol of your enduring commitment.

Certified Diamonds: The Heart of a Valquère Engagement Ring

Every Valquère engagement ring is adorned with a certified diamond, a beautifully symbolic representation of unconditional love. Whether you favour the timeless elegance of a solitary diamond or the unique allure of a three-diamond style, our Antwerp handcrafted collections shine with quality. Our selection process is anchored to the internationally recognized 4Cs of diamond quality - Carat, Colour, Clarity, and Cut.

Any diamond you choose from Valquère will be of the finest quality, handpicked, and certified by industry-respected bodies such as IGI. A diamond's clarity and colour play crucial roles in maintaining its pristine appearance, which is why we recommend diamonds that score at least VVS2 or VS1 on the clarity scale and are rated E or F on the colour scale.

Choosing the Perfect Diamond Size for Your Engagement Ring

Are you curious about the ideal carat size for a diamond engagement ring? The average carat size globally rests between 1.00 and 1.09 carats. As the carat size increases, so does the price of the engagement ring. With Valquère, you're choosing not just jewelry, but a crafted statement, made through the marriage of Antwerp craftsmanship, modern design, and personal service.

Finding the Diamond Cut and Setting That Complements Your Love Story

Very much like your love story, each diamond cut is unique, each with its own brilliance and reflection. The brilliance of a diamond – its ability to sparkle and reflect light – is significantly influenced by its cut. Favorite cuts, such as the round brilliant or the princess cut, are known for their high brilliance.

Notably, at Valquère, the quality of the diamond cut is labeled as "excellent", "very good", "good", "fair", and "poor" which provide clear insight into your diamond's brilliance. In addition, we offer various settings for your diamond, ensuring the piece is tailored to her lifestyle and tastes.

Precious Metal and Diamond Colour Choices for Engagement Rings

Most of our clients opt for colourless diamonds for their engagement rings, with the purity of white graded from D to Z. The coveted D colour is the rarest, representing absolute colourless perfection. However, for the budget-conscious suitor, a E or F colour diamond offers a nearly colourless solution at a more accessible price point.

The choice of precious metal for your engagement ring is another critical decision. Whether you're drawn to the timeless appeal of white gold, the distinct allure of yellow gold or the contemporary look of platinum, our Antwerp craftsmen infuse each piece with a unique, luxurious statement that is uniquely Valquère.

The Perfect Fit for Your Perfect Proposal

At Valquère, we understand the importance of the perfect fit - not just for the ring, but for your romantic journey as well. That's why we have a dedicated team of experts who are happy to assist you in discovering her ring size, ensuring a seamless and memorable proposal.
