Are you looking for the right piece of jewelry to go with an outfit? Are you planning on popping the question? You will need to find a Jeweler in Yuba City, CA, that can deal with your particular style and needs.

If you’re looking for a diamond engagement ring, you want to keep in mind the three C’s – color, cut, clarity and carat. Diamonds are graded in letters. “D” is considered the most colorless diamond. “G” and “H” diamonds are considered to be a good color. Cut includes both the shape and the perfection of the shape. Shapes come in princess, emerald, pear, round, rose and many other shapes. The perfection of the shape includes the way the light illuminates off the facets of the diamond. Clarity refers to the amount of inclusions in a diamond. Flawless diamonds are by far the rarest and most coveted. As such, they are also very expensive. VS1 and VS2 come with very small inclusions. Carat is strictly the weight of the diamond. The larger the diamond, the more expensive the diamond. Some diamond rings are made with several small diamonds which are set to look like a solitaire. This is a less expensive way to have a diamond engagement ring.

A hot trend today is colored gemstone engagement rings. Finding the right sapphire, ruby or emerald ring can be fun. Some colored gemstones are much more rare than diamonds. A reputable jewelry store will have many solitaires from which to choose. Rubies and sapphires are slightly less hard than a diamond is and can withstand the wear and tear of daily life for those who are hard on jewelry. Emeralds are softer than rubies and sapphires and don’t withstand wear and tear of daily life for those who are hard on jewelry.

Earrings, bracelets and necklaces are also available at jewelry stores. It would be nice to have earrings, a bracelet and a pendant that match your engagement ring. There is never a wrong time to present someone with a little velvet box. Jewlery stores are playgrounds for those who truly love jewelry.
