Buying A Diamond For A Lasting Impression

Should you ask ten different people how they value a diamond, you are sure to get ten different answers. Yes, fact is that a specific cut may hold high value, and the diamond carat value will indicate its price. The setting and metals used to create a diamond ring will also greatly influence its monetary value. The stunning diamonds available through Marlows have many different shapes, sizes and of course, many different meanings.

When spoken about the value of a diamond, normally it’s about the 4 C’s, which means the carat, colour, cut and clarity of the stone. These are logical facts and everyone understands that. But the different answers to the question of value of a diamond come about the perception that people hold of diamonds.

Priceless as seen in the eyes of the beholder

Of all the stones mined from the earth, the diamond holds the most mystery and value for humans. It is seen as the stone of love, purity and a show of the greatest care when given as a present. That is why throughout the ages the diamond has been used so often in wedding and engagement rings. It is the physical manifestation of the promise to love and to hold for eternity.

Often the diamond ring given in a promise of love does not have to be the most expensive or the rarest of diamonds, it is the meaning that gives the ring its priceless value. Yes, diamonds are an investment that never loses its value, but not many women will trade in their original engagement ring for a ‘better and bigger’ diamond. We are all different, we value diamonds differently. There is no right or wrong, it is about one’s own personal perception.
