Choosing an engagement ring in Lyon, as everywhere else, is not an easy task for you gentlemen! But don't give up, you have already managed to overcome many other challenges such as having to go out to dinner with your better half and all her girlfriends when a quiet football pizza night was waiting for you at home !

Gentlemen, we know, the task is difficult but elle is not insurmountable! And in Lyon, we are afraid of nothing !

We can see it in your slightly anxious eye when you arrive in our jewelry store in Lyon.

You are sometimes shy, lost or even bewildered. But rest assured, those who arrive with straight shoulders and a valiant eye, proudly brandishing their smartphone filled with photos and models spotted on the net, are no more serene than you.

We know it, we see it, but we are here, because together we will overcome this challenge: choosing THE engagement ring in Lyon !

But then which engagement ring to choose in Lyon ?

Sapphire or diamond, paved or without paving, with a double or a single halo, in platinum or white gold, emerald cut or oval... so many choices... it can sometimes be quite difficult to see clearly.

Yet you don't have your jeweler's diploma in your pocket and the only piece of jewelry you have ever made with your own hands was a superb noodle necklace for Mother's Day when you were 7 years old !

Don't panic, we will guide you step by step through this task. At theDiamond jewelry store in Lyon We are used to facing all challenges.

1) The choice of metal

Yellow gold, white gold or platinum ?

It is said that yellow gold suits tanned or dark skin perfectly. But there are no real established rules. It's all a matter of taste.

Gentlemen, do not hesitate to look at the jewelry your beloved wears daily.

They will tell you much more than any chatter! If Miss only wears yellow gold, your choice will be made. I can already hear you: 'Yes but if Madame wears white gold, then white gold or platinum?'

Very good question. Here are some points that will enlighten you: White gold is not found in nature. It is an alloy of 75% yellow gold and 25% silver, nickel or zinc. Platinum, on the other hand, is 95% pure, which places it ahead of gold in terms of the "purity" of the precious metal.

Since white gold is composed of 75% yellow gold, it is therefore expected that the metal will yellow over a few years. To revive the whiteness, the ring will need to be re-rhodium plated.

This operation aims to apply a thin film of Rhodium in order to make the jewelry stainless and maintain its brilliant grey color.

Again, advantage for Platinum which is naturally light grey and will not undergo any color change over time.

Gentlemen, go back in time and return to the physics-chemistry class at Jean Moulin Middle School in Lyon where Madame Herriot taught you that the density of platinum is greater than that of gold: this property makes platinum more resistant to scratches and scrapes.

The much-dreaded physics-chemistry course of Mrs. Herriot at least had the merit of helping you choose the metal for the much-coveted ring…

Final point to help you choose: platinum, which is rarer in nature, is also more expensive. I sense your disappointment, you had almost made your choice... don't panic, at https://www.celinni.com/en/content/80-diamond-jewelry-store-lyon, Platinum engagement rings are on average the same price as white gold ones !

2) The choice of the central stone:

Diamond or other precious stone ?

Traditionally, it is the diamond, a symbol of eternity, that is chosen to shape an engagement ring. But again, there is no strict rule. Rest assured, whatever stone you choose, elle will make your other half happy.

That being said, it doesn't stop us from going into a little more detail:

- The diamond engagement ring:

Four criteria define the value and quality of a diamond. You have all heard of the 4Cs, without really knowing what they correspond to, so let me explain:

C as in Cut or Size: The proportions of a diamond determine how light radiates through it. The skill with which the cut is made is therefore a determining factor in the quality of the diamond. As a general rule, the higher the quality of the cut, the more brilliant the diamond is. The cut can also refer to the shape of the diamond: marquise, princess, oval, heart, or emerald...

Again, during your visit to our Celinni showroom in Lyon, we will show you all the different shapes a diamond can take. It's a matter of taste !

C as in Carat or weight: theThe weight of a diamond is expressed in carats. One carat corresponds to 0.20 grams.

C as in Clarity or purity: Diamonds contain bodies, called inclusions, and have certain irregularities on the surface, called defects, which can lower their value. However, inclusions are useful for recognizing a real diamond.

The purity scale ranges from "Flawless" to I (inclusions).

C as in Color or colour: The color can vary greatly from one diamond to another, or present more subtle nuances. Elle is expressed in letters, from D to Z. Diamonds whose color is closest to D are the most colorless. At the Celinni showroom in Lyon, the quality of the diamonds selected by our diamond dealers ranges from letter D to letter I.

You will have to juggle between these different criteria and thus choose the diamond that will match your desires but also your budget.

At the Celinni jewelry store in Lyon, we are here to guide you so that this choice is as simple as possible for you.

In the meantime, since you are already a great enthusiast of diamonds, I invite you to study our details more closely.DIAMOND GUIDE

- The gemstone engagement ring:

An engagement ring with a sapphire

It evokes loyalty and even wealth for some. Sapphire is the most commercially sold precious stone in the world (all jewelry combined). Engagement rings adorned with sapphires have been popular in recent years. The price varies depending on its color. The brighter the blue of the stone, the more expensive the sapphire will be.

An engagement ring with an emerald

Symbol of fertility and hope, the emerald is appreciated for its shimmering green color.

The emerald is the most fragile of precious stones, which is why they are often rectangular or octagonal on rings, in order to withstand shocks.

An engagement ring with a ruby

Synonymous with happiness and passion, the ruby has historically been associated with power. The ruby is one of the rarest and therefore most expensive gemstones.

The ruby is a highly coveted gemstone in jewelry, especially for its color, hardness, and the elegance it brings.elle Breathe in! It is sometimes said that if the diamond is king, the ruby would be his queen !

3) The style:

You thought you were done, well you're going to have to wait a bit longer...

There are almost as many styles as there are rings.

I can already see in your eyes that you're losing your footing. Don't worry, your goal is almost reached.
