Engagement Ring Guide

Helping You Find the Perfect Ring for Your Love Story

Choosing an engagement ring isn’t just a task—it’s a beautiful journey, filled with emotion and meaning. At Pear Jewels, we truly care about helping you find that perfect piece that feels right, just like your love story. Whether it’s a grand proposal or an intimate, quiet moment between the two of you, the right ring should reflect your connection, your memories, and everything you hold dear.

This guide will walk alongside you, step by step—from understanding lab-grown diamonds to selecting the perfect metal and design. You’ll even find tips for picking a style that matches your partner’s personality or creating a custom ring just for them. We’re here to help you make a thoughtful choice that speaks from the heart.

How Much Should You Spend?

The amount you spend on a ring should feel comfortable and right for you. While some follow the old “one-to-two months’ salary” tradition, there’s no perfect formula. What really matters is the love and thought you put into it.

With lab-grown diamonds, you can create a ring that sparkles beautifully and fits your budget without compromising on quality. Whether it’s a simple solitaire or something more intricate, it’s the story behind the ring that makes it truly priceless—not the amount you spend.

Picking the Right Metal

The metal of the ring reflects both style and how your partner will wear it every day. Here’s a quick guide to help:

  • White Gold: Sleek and modern—perfect for those who love trendy styles.
  • Yellow Gold: Classic and warm—great for an elegant, timeless look.
  • Rose Gold: Romantic and soft—ideal for someone with a unique, artistic flair.
  • Platinum: Strong and hypoallergenic—perfect for everyday wear with lasting shine.

Choose a metal that feels like them—something that will bring a smile to their face every time they see it.

Choosing a Style That Tells Your Story

Every engagement ring tells a story. Here are some styles to explore that might fit yours:

  • Solitaire: Simple, timeless, and effortlessly elegant.
  • Halo: A sparkly design that makes the center stone shine even brighter.
  • Pavé: Tiny diamonds along the band for a subtle shimmer.
  • Three-Stone: Represents your past, present, and future together.
  • Tension: A sleek, modern design where the stone seems to "float" between the band’s edges.

Pick a style that resonates with your partner’s personality—something they’ll love wearing every day and will cherish forever.

Choosing the Right Stone

The center stone makes a big impact, not just visually but emotionally too. Here are some beautiful options:

  • Lab-Grown Diamond: Sparkles like a natural diamond but is kinder to both the environment and your budget.
  • Emerald: A lush green gem symbolizing renewal and love.
  • Sapphire: A deep blue stone that represents trust and loyalty.
  • Ruby: A bold red gem that speaks of passion and romance.
  • Colored Gems: Amethyst, citrine, or other vibrant stones for a playful, personal touch.

Choose a stone that feels meaningful to you—something that reflects your journey together, not just its beauty.
