Diamond Hunting: Part 1 & 1a

It's been a while since the last time I try a diamond ring ... A few days jek sebenar nye, heheh ... You know now how excited I am ... But these are some idea of what I found past few weeks ...

This is what I found in a jeweleries shop in Kuantan (well, this is the closest ... with white gold of course), it's in East Coast Mall ... Right in front of the Carefour counters ... Haih, it's been a while now ... That I forgot the characteristics ... I think it's around 0.5carat, good range of color (can't remember exactly) ... Clarity - vvsi ... Cool huh ?? At a price of rm 1x, xxx ...

I can give you the 2nd number, tapi mcm unfair pulak ... Kesian pulak kat org lain yg trying hard to get it kan ... Hahah, you have to go down & hunt it for yourself ... Or, you can just email me ... Heheh ...

I like the fact that it's rare for you to find this shape, & I think the price is reasonable ... Me ?? I'm not really interested in trying something rare, heheh ... I'm conservative, I'm more attracted to those more classic ... Heheh, poyo !!!

Tapi kalau org nak bagi why not kan ?? Heheh, but if only I have it pun ... I'll definitely find something else, sooner or later ...

Then later last week, we went to Tomei in Mahkota Parade ... Melaka, the SA offer us this 'triple excellent' diamond with 'ntah hape ntah die sebut' casing ... I never heard of the triple X before, but I guess it's just the 4c's thing ... They gave 1x to a single c that diamond represented ...

For instant, the one the marked 1x - came in G color ... Somehow it's around 0.5carat, with clarity of vsi ... It's the characteristic of the diamonds, simplified in term of excellent ... For the ease of understanding, for those who don't speak diamond language ... Heheh ...

There's a few good one as well down there, she event mentioned about the special cert ... Hahah, actually don't really get her ... Have to sit down & focus to learn more on what she's trying to explain ...

Maybe later, when I'm ready for it ... I'll keep you posted ...

~Until the next diamond hunting session~ :D

Hearts on Fire - Part II

Post ini adalah copy paste, sebab sambutan menggalakkan ke atas previous entry ...

I went crazy in diamonds back few weeks. A friend lemme try her 75k Hearts on Fire, it's super hot!! It got us (me & bf) into the rush in diamond hunting. If you've been browsing through wedding blogs lately, you'll find a few advice on choosing a diamond ring.

One famous advice is not to get those with small stones, because the probability of loosing that small2 pieces (since there's a lot of it) is quite high. In cost-wise advice?? Normally (<--- my personal opinion), the one with small diamonds arrangement are cheaper than the fine cut. (3-7k, depending on design)

Because?? They don't really have dozens of fine cut diamonds (certificate diamond) for that kind of arrangements, except if you request for a custom made. You should expect a custom made price then.

Diamonds can come in varies shapes from different types of squares (as I see it square from the 1st time), rounds etc.

Then you have to consider a few things before making your choice which is the color, clarity. & carat of course. Carats measures the size of the diamond, for Asian they normally advice to go for smaller carats as it suits best with our small little fingers.

I'm not going deeper into color & clarity as I already mentioned it in my other post.

Another good advice on diamond rings is to choose 4prongs instead of 6 to make the diamond pop ups/ look bigger beside choosing higher setting (ring design).

diamond appeared smaller in 6prong

this one better

Good luck searching for your perfect ring ladies!!
