Fine & Simple Engagement Rings: What Makes Them Popular

Simple engagement rings are delicate and subtle, which is ideal for today’s professional men and women who love wearing their jewellery on a daily basis. A fine engagement ring allows you to wear it day in and day out and not the type of ring you must keep in a safe to protect its value.

The subtleness is also popular amongst women who love more discrete jewellery that add that extra bit of sparkle without being too noticeable. Fine engagement rings are also trendy amongst fashionistas who love to stack several rings together on the same finger.

When Do We Refer to an Engagement Ring as Fine?

The standard width of an engagement ring is 2.5 mm. However, fine engagement rings fluctuate between 1.5 and 2 mm. When you click on a ring in the extensive collection of engagement rings, you will see these details listed with the product properties.

Fine engagement rings are extremely comfortable. Less weight also equals less precious metal, meaning you won’t need to pay as much for fine engagement rings!

What Are the Advantages of Fine Engagement Rings?

So as stated, the first advantage is the price. Although you could spend the budget you are left over with on a larger diamond. It goes without saying that you can certainly also go for a smaller diamond. The diamond will stand out more with a fine ring. Choosing a finer engagement ring is therefore a handy trick for making the diamond appear bigger.

A thinner engagement ring is a lovely idea if you want enough space on your finger to stack multiple rings. You can easily stack a thin engagement ring with your wedding band as well as one or two other special celebration rings, creating one beautiful piece of jewellery.

Does your future wife or husband have fine fingers? Then a finer engagement ring is most definitely a good idea. So,make sure you take a good look at their hands and decide which ring would suit them best, based on the shape of their hands.

What Are the Disadvantages of Fine Engagement Rings?

Of course, there is never an advantage without a disadvantage. Finer engagement rings are more sensitive, so make sure you opt for a durable precious metal like platinum and 18kt yellow, white or red gold. Platinum does weigh more than gold, although this is negligible when you choose a fine engagement ring. It’s important to always wear and look after finer engagement rings with the appropriate level of care, as they are more delicate.

Depending on the level of activity in your life, a fine ring may be a little fragile to some extent so it should be handled carefully when undertaking extreme activities like contact sports or surfing. Also, advise your fiancée to safely store their ring in a safe during your holidays. Sand, seawater, and pool water could damage the ring.
