Engagement Rings Sport Coloured Diamonds

Time was when the whiter and clearer the diamond, the better. While these flawless white diamonds are still held to be very special, many women are looking at and receiving coloured diamonds on their engagement rings. Is it a trend that has come down from the celebrities? Diamonds of every hue from yellow to pink to brown seem to be on the fingers of the recently engaged and in carat weights that go over 5 usually.

While the large diamonds are not what the regular man can afford, coloured diamonds are available in smaller sizes too so that means that engagement rings can go coloured very easily now. Are women looking at white as boring now and opting for coloured? No, not all - there are still a number of them who still want the traditional style but there is definitely a larger number that wants to get out of the rut and try something new - and differently coloured. While a white diamond solitaire will be gushed over, a brown diamond on your finger is definitely a great topic for conversation as most women know. The pinks, the blues, the greens and the yellows too have their own appeal.
