It is no surprise that such a beautiful ring is so coveted by friends and strangers alike. |
Perhaps even better is the quality of older diamond rings. Currently diamonds are mined in masses, shipped overseas to factories, processed in masses, and then finally sent to artisans to make the same model of ring thousands and thousands of times with the help of automated machinery. This is obviously counterproductive to the quality of the ring, but it was not always this way. At one time rings were made completely by hand, and it was a long and arduous process. This meant that every ring was crafted to absolute perfection. Older diamond rings simply have a unique charm that does not exist anymore.
If older rings are better, why isn't everybody getting them? Unfortunately, the high quality of them coupled with the limited availability mean the prices are very high. The price range of many older rings is simply too high for the average person. Still, a market does exist for these older rings. A person who wants the best possibly ring regardless of price will always an older ring.
Ultimately, vintage diamond rings have shown themselves to be the highest quality rings on the market; however, they are not affordable to many. If it is in someones price range, he or she should definitely consider buying one. If not, there are plenty of other beautiful styles of rings. Pink Sapphire Engagement Rings, black diamonds rings, and many others are all beautiful choices.
