The Antique Diamond Engagement Ring Is Exquisite
The exquisite beauty of an antique diamond engagement ring will bring tears to your eyes when your fiancé gives it to you. These rings have an intricate beauty all of their own. The details involved are often very unique. The settings of an antique diamond engagement ring often have white gold, and you can find them in a variety of prices. Don’t expect to pay much less then about $5,000 for an ‘average’ antique ring. This is a rather pricey adventure, but well worth the investment. You’ll want to make sure that you get insurance for your antique diamond engagement ring.

A History of the Diamond Engagement Ring

There are early records out there of the antique diamond engagement ring. The earliest engagement ring that was ever given was in 1477. The Archduke Maximillian of Hamburg gave it to Mary of Burgundy. This ring was set with an antique-cut diamond. These rings were called Art Deco. They were originally mounted with sapphires, emeralds and rubies. In addition, they were always worn on the third finger, on the left hand. This was originally a Roman custom and was named a “betrothal” ring which means truth.

In 1880, De Beers Engagement rings were all under the control of the Englishman Cecil John Rhodes. Then the manufacturer of the Platinum antique diamond engagement ring was banned during the Second World War. They did this because the platinum was saved for armaments rather then jewelry. This really slowed down the sale of antique diamond engagement rings and other jewelry of this nature. This history tells you a little bit about how the antique diamond engagement ring came into play in our world, and while there is a lot more to it, needless to say, today we have a plethora of jewelry options.

Own One as an Investment with Love

To own one of these in your family is to own an heirloom of which you can give down from generation to generation. It is less of an expense, and more of an investment because of this reason. It is an investment that not only shows someone that you love and want to spend the rest of your life with her it is also an investment that can help you in the future or be passed on from generation to generation.

Giving someone an antique diamond engagement ring is a proposal of love for life. It is something that should not be done lightly. You are making a commitment for life, and should stick with that commitment through thick and thin.
