Many engagements and marriages are said to start out as casual, but expected encounters between two social friends who just start their fling with small suggestive gestures. Situations like these then blossom into the fairy tale of a wedding in which the promises come and the future is an anticipated love poem. The thought surrounding the ring is a story to itself as the parties involved attempt to pore all their feelings into a piece of jewelry. This piece of grandeur propped on their fingers or even on another unconventional area is expected to tell the story for both sides which may include how they met, why they met, and the reason they should always be together. Many have gone to great lengths and discovered that for diamond engagement bands New York is simply the best location, especially the shopping centers of Manhattan.
The term “soul mate” is in many cases enveloped in that piece of diamond that so fortuitously ended up on the body part that it is being paraded on. One glance at that piece of rock should give that moment of awe, which speaks for itself saying that the exchange must have been made between soul mates.
Don’t be fooled thinking that the idea that giving diamonds as gifts is confined only to the great moments associated with engagement and marriage. Think of the couple, long in the game, who sit on the porch holding hands thinking about the days when they had black in their hair. They still want to do so much for each other after so many years but, it was just not possible with the mortgage and the kids going to college. They’ve since moved out and the house has been paid in full. He balances the books and has a smile on his face. “We’re at twenty five years and I can buy it now”, he thinks. The old copper ring he bought to hold the space on her finger has long lost its color but she wears it with pride and always remembers to put it back on after washing the dishes. He says to her, “you’ve waited long enough” and asks her to go into town with him. She asks, “For what?”And he says,” you always ask but, you come anyway”. “Don’t fuss this time, just come as you would”. He’s already paid for it, because he remembered her size and slipped it on as if it were being done for the first time. The clarity of the stone brings with it a glare and a shine that makes its way straight to hey eyes. His only response is, “there it is”.
What can you buy for the man that has everything? Many women have grappled with finding that luxurious, sentimental yet conservative piece for their loved one. They may know their other half well and that he isn’t fussy but has class and fancies nice things. That’s why she caught his eye in the first place. You notice his watch and sees that it’s nice but, that mixed pattern watch with the diamond studs will surely make a great birthday gift. He loves it and remembers the reason he brought you for dinner. His gift wasn’t a watch and you will definitely say, “Yes”.
The thought behind buying a diamond for a loved one should be done with great thought and care. Buying a piece of diamond is not a trip to the poor house as there are many means of acquiring that desired piece. In most cases that piece of jewelry will be there to tell the story that people will inevitably ask.
