There are many key points to consider when choosing a ring (or rings) for yourself or to give as a gift. First, we are going to look at what is important when selecting a ring for yourself. Ask yourself the following questions: 1. Are you searching for an heirloom piece of jewelry that you intend to pass on to future generations? If so, you will want to choose a ring that is durable and a quality piece. 2. Does gemstone jewelry or gemstone beads top your list of favorites? There are a number of choices available in both, some custom and some already available through retailers. 3. Will you be choosing your birthstone, or a mother's ring for yourself? Be aware of the fact that there are many knock-off's out there and it's important to be a choosey shopper. Now, say you're looking for a gift to give someone. Ask yourself the following questions: 1. Is this an engagement ring? If so, ask your future spouse what type of ring they like, as well as the cut of the diamond. You only have one shot at getting this right! 2. Are you purchasing a class ring? These pieces are often gemstone jewelry featuring your child's school information. Again, be wary of knock-off imitations. 3. Is the ring your shopping for an anniversary band? Be sure, again, to ask your spouse what type of ring they like and the cut of the diamonds. Ring shopping can be tricky when it comes to comfort, durability, and practicality. If you are the type who enjoys wearing rings daily, then the last thing you want is something that is going to get caught on garments, that will bend easily, and that is not the right size. Here are some tips to consider when ring shopping: ? Avoid rings with dangling pendants or stones for everyday wear, otherwise these pieces could fall apart. ? Be sure to choose a ring that is durable enough for everyday wear, and will not easily bend. Speak to the jeweler about the best option. ? Try on several different ring sizes, taking into consideration the fact that your fingers will swell from time to time. However, also keep in mind that a loose fitting ring is just as uncomfortable as a tight one. Some people enjoy wearing a ring on each finger and, while this is fine for some, it is not a practical option for others. This is particularly true for those who work frequently with their hands (or have dirty jobs) throughout the day. However, if your working with computers or cash registers (or even working with older children in schools or during child care), this fashion statement is perfectly acceptable and comfortable. The bottom line: think about what your lifestyle is comprised of, and go from there. If you are the type who gardens a lot, then you are not going to be able to wear something that is delicate unless you don't mind taking the ring off each time you dig in the dirt. If you are the type who shuffles a lot of paper throughout the day, you are likely to be able to wear a more delicate styled ring without causing inadvertent damage.
