The Man Made Diamonds

We all love to have an engagement or anniversary ring with a large diamond. Larger diamonds are more eye catching and radiate beauty and sparkle. Here are a few tips enabling you to make your diamond look larger than its actual size.

While buying one, you shuld carefully select a shape that looks bigger. Look for a long-shaped diamond such as oval, princess, or marquise that looks bigger than diamonds with a round cut. You may browse online or vsit a jewelry shop to have a look at these shapes.

Another trick that makes a diamond look larger is a ring with a thin band.  A smaller band allows the diamond to stand out, as it draws attention to the diamond and not the entire ring as such.

It helps to have pave setting for making a diamond look bigger.  Such a setting gives the impression of a recurrent chain of diamonds, adding to the shape and size of the diamond.  A pave setting comprises of small diamonds that are held together using tiny beads.

Setting of the diamond can also help make it look bigger. It should complement the shape and size of the diamond.   For example, a bezel setting has a rim fully circling the diamond that raises its level.  You could also opt for an invisible setting done beneath the diamond.  An invisible setting is hidden giving the impression of a floating diamond.

An illusion setting too makes a diamond look larger.  An illusion setting houses a mirror within the setting prior to placing the diamond in that.  The mirror reflects the diamond, making it look larger and brighter. Regular cleaning and checking of your diamond helps to enhance its natural properties.
