Let Her Say ‘I Do’ To A Bigger Carat With LVC Precieux

Planning an elaborate and heartfelt engagement is no easy feat. From seeking out the most charming diamond shape that speaks to her, to matching it to the right metal choice, and even deciding and keeping to your ring budget – there’s a million things for you to consider to nail that big ‘I do’.

So if you’re experiencing ring-hunting woes and feeling lost in the sea of diamond ring designs and options, you’ve come to the right place. Whether you’ve just started searching or been facing a wall in your search for a while now, here’s all you need to attain her dream diamond and the engagement of a lifetime!

What does a carat signify?

A carat is a unit of measurement for the physical weight of diamonds. And little did you not know that a carat value is not determine by the ‘size’ but in fact, it’s the weight that matters (1 carat equals to 0.2g). Traditionally, a larger carat ‘size’ means that the stone is said to be more valuable.

What’s the average carat size of an engagement ring?

As one of the top considerations for a man who’s on his search for the perfect proposal ring to pop the question with, this comes to mind almost instantly. With worries whether the diamond isn’t big enough or if it doesn’t offer enough sparkle to dazzle your special someone, there’s always the question of what carat size is most suitable for an engagement ring.

And figuring out carat size can be tricky. It isn’t a simple choice between 1, 2, or 3 carats. It’s also commonly believed that the most popular carat size is 1 – but as a matter of fact, that’s just the average carat size! You don’t have to be ashamed of looking for carat sizes below 1 because many other partners have done the same. On the other end of the purchasing spectrum, some partners seek up to 3 carats simply because they can afford it.

Yet, even rings with smaller diamonds can be worn with the same air of elegance. If you’re struggling to choose between a 0.5 or 0.75 carat diamond, remember that for a similar brilliance seen by the naked eye, you’ll be able to save so much when you opt for the smaller carat size!

Then, why do many still seek out a bigger carat size?

Since a long time ago, many romantic lovers have used the carat size to measure their eternal love for their significant other. With a larger carat size and hence a larger diamond ring, he proves that he loves you even more! Sometimes, men can also be embarrassed to give their partner a diamond smaller than that of her friends’ rings.

But practically speaking, your diamond ring stands as a symbolic promise between you and your significant other. And if you burn too big of a hole in your pocket over the engagement ring, without enough savings left for other wedding planning costs or that luxurious honeymoon once the travel restrictions ease, spending beyond your ring budget would probably not be as romantic of a move.
