Finger type is usually the deciding factor when looking for your perfect ring. When you are choosing a diamond engagement ring, you must remember that what you see in the display case and how it will look on your finger may be very different. Try on the styles you like to make sure that it looks good on you.
Here are some suggestions to help you choose the right engagement ring.
Consider the finger length x width, ring shape and style
Whenever you are trying on various diamond rings, keep in mind your finger’s length and width along with the size of your hand. Also, check the shape and size of the diamond studded on it. The width and style of the ring is also an important parameter to consider.
You should take into consideration your personal likes and styles that you like.
For long fingers
Long fingers are perfect for engagement rings. Some good choices would be a princess-cut or round stone diamond ring. You can also wear a wide band that complements your finger length.
Don’t be afraid to wear a bold look if that is what you want! Engagement rings should also be a way for you to express your personal style and taste.
For slender fingers
Your engagement ring should not overshadow your finger. Go for smaller stones that create the illusion of a wider finger. Thick bands are the best option if you want your finger to appear wider.
For short fingers
If you have short fingers, you may be trying to make them look a bit longer. Oval, pear or marquise stones are an an ideal match for you. Medium-sized rectangular emerald-shaped stones can also elongate short fingers. You can also a pick slender, narrow-width bands that suits your personality.
For wide fingers
If you have wide fingers, you may want to select a ring that doesn’t show too much skin on either side of the ring. But you can also try both funky and sophisticated styles according to your preferences.We recommend a wide oval, marquise, rectangular or emerald shaped stone. Don’t go for narrow stones with angular shapes or asymmetrical designs.Round stones that are larger in size look good on wide fingers as well. Finally, we recommend a medium to thick band for your ring.
For big knuckles
If you are someone who has bigger knuckles, you can go for thicker, heavier bands that distract the onlookers from the knuckles and averting direction to the ring. But don’t worry, we are sure any engagement ring that you love, will keep you happy!
For small hands
Small round, princess-cut, oval or heart-shaped stones would fit well if you have small hands. The ring therefore should be smaller in size in order for it to be proportional to your hand.
Large hands
Larger rings are a better option if you have large hands. Try out-of-the-box styles. Bulky rings also look great on larger hands.
Conclusion
Although we talk a lot about finger and hand size, always consider the bigger picture whenever you are choosing a diamond engagement ring. It’s not just about the finger, it’s about you! It’s about your personality and what you want to see on your finger for the rest of your union! Ultimately, you are the one who has to wear the ring and no one can decide what is best for you other than yourself.
