How to Select The Perfect Ring
Things to Consider
![vintage inspired engagement ring](https://dev.jfjonesjewelers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/lifestyle-1024x1024.jpg)
Lifestyle/Job
We want to match the wearer’s lifestyle with the design of the ring- so the ring isn’t in the repair shop more than it’s on her hand!
![three popular engagement ring styles](https://dev.jfjonesjewelers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/ring-styles-1024x1024.jpg)
Personal Style
Which of these three would you describe her as? Fashionista, Sporty, or Nature Lover
![accented engagement ring](https://dev.jfjonesjewelers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/68152797-1024x1024.jpg)
Size or Quality
Does she want the bragging rights of a 2 carat or would she prefer a slightly smaller diamond of better quality?

Precious Metals
Selecting the right precious metal for your ring goes beyond looks alone. Each metal type and quality feature specific traits that are important to understand when making a decision.

Craftsmanship
Appearances can be deceiving, and while two rings may share a similar design, it’s the intricacies of their craftsmanship that ultimately determine their value and quality.
Shop Together!
![engagement rings greece ny](https://dev.jfjonesjewelers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/couple-shopping-1024x822.jpg)
A popular option is to bring your partner in to “pre-shop,” they want a say in what their engagement ring looks like! At this time I can measure her finger and get an idea of her general sense of style. We won’t discuss pricing at this appointment but make sure to include your budget in your appointment request so that I can steer her toward the right rings.
Some couples will buy it on the spot, but most will come back separately to finalize the transaction. This way you will still be able to surprise her.

Moissanite is a man-made stone that mimics a diamond. It has a higher refractive index showing off more colors and sparkle. They are the second hardest stone to a diamond making a great option for an engagement ring at a lower price.
