BLUE DIAMOND ENGAGEMENT RINGS - When Sapphires Just Won't Make the Grade



1.05Ct. Blue Diamond Three Stone Engagement Ring



Sapphire and diamond engagement rings were all the rage for several decades I suppose every bride wanted an antique sapphire and diamond engagement ring like the one Prince Charles gave Diana. However, I see the modern trends in engagement rings veering strongly towards blue diamonds over other less expensive (actually cheap in comparison) gems.

Blue diamond cocktail rings as well as beautifully etched and carved blue diamond engagement rings that seem almost delicate are rare, probably because they are in such popular demand at the moment! For the bride who's not into antiques or who has a groom that doesn't have an old blue diamond ring hanging out with the other family heirlooms in the lockbox, there are options for the modern bride to peruse at her leisure or hubby to be can purchase a fine blue diamond ring guaranteed to make her flip when she opens the black velvet jewelry case.

Nothing unique or unusual about a certain color gemstone being popular except that the brides are buying matching mens blue diamond wedding rings to match their rings. Now that's rather strange, but nice. I'm not sure how I feel about a man wearing a blue diamond. It's something that really catches the eye, but somehow men's rings in the color of flowers, etc. is something that we'll have to get used to.

Admire your perfect antique or contemporary blue diamond engagement and wedding rings while lying on the beach in Jamaica or while floating down the Nile on a barge.
