Tips for buying the best diamond engagement ring

Written By Hector Sanchez

We've got some insider tips to help you find the perfect diamond engagement ring:

Here are 5 Shopping Tips:

1. Set your budget: Think about what kind of payment feels comfortable for you.

2. Choose the cut that will dazzle her the most and make the diamond sparkle. Aim for the highest cut grade you can afford.

3. Juggle carat size: Find the right balance between carat weight, cut grade, and color for that ultimate wow factor.

4. Match the metal and ring style to the person it's intended for. It's all about personal style here.

5. Remember to ask for the diamond’s GIA grading report to ensure you’re getting your money’s worth.

Just a fun fact: 1 carat equals 100 points. And there are some classic cuts and shapes to consider, like round, pear, oval, emerald, marquise, asscher, and trillion.

Aumaris original Nautical Jewelry is handcrafted with a natural approach to jewelry design, to ensure each piece is environmentally friendly, socially responsible and unique.
Hector Sanchez was born, the second child of a master jeweler. He is the one to inherit a legacy of jewelry craftsmanship that spanned three generations. Like his father before him, Hector enjoys the art of jewelry making. 
At the age of 16, Hector embarked on an apprenticeship under his father, who taught him the jeweler’s art along with family honored techniques Hector still employs to this day. The rigors of his father’s strict training forged both masterful design skills and an uncompromising work ethic rooted in hard work, perseverance and love for his craft.

 

 Hector moved to California and worked for eight years in the Los Angeles jewelry district, where he fine-tuned his skills. It was here in the City of Angels that he met sailor and entrepreneur, Bob Bitchin.
Bob shared with Hector his frustration with finding an artist who could bring his vision of a hefty sailor gold bracelet to life (Bob is 6'4"). Hector volunteered to give it a try. He did, and Bob loved it. So much so that in 1990 he joined forces with Hector to start a nautical jewelry business, and together they created among others the original Turks-Head Comfort Rings. After a few years, Bob decided to cast off and sail into the sunset, while Hector continued designing unique fine nautical jewelry.
To this day Hector continues to work on new designs from his studio in Hawaii, creating some of the most beautiful enduring jewelry designs with his wife Chris; the love of his life.
