Today's my diamond education with JannPaul and I set it during lunch time otherwise I wouldn't have time after work too. Met up with Joy for our 1.5 hours of diamond education as she educate me on the 4Cs: Cut, Colour, Clarity and Carat.
The Cut of the diamond is regarded as one of the most important aspect as it has the greatest influence on a diamond's sparkle so I decided to go for the Super Ideal Cut Round Diamond.
The Colour of the diamond is as important as I would not want the diamond to turn out yellowish so I decided to go for F so that it would be colorless.
The Clarity of the diamond refers to the tiny microscopic imperfections on the diamond so I decided to go for VVS2 (Very Very Slightly Included).
Lastly, for the Carat of the diamond, I decided to go for 0.390 because I really cannot stand the diamond being any smaller than that.
And now to the most important part of it. The customisation of the proposal ring so I chose a 18k white gold setting with 4 heart-shaped prongs to hold the diamond and also 9 side diamonds at each side. I also wanted something to symbolise the girlfriend's name "雪" which means snow therefore I opted to have a half snowflake on the ring and also 1 diamond on each side of the snow flake. And with that, the proposal ring would have a total of 21 diamonds, which symbolised the date of our anniversary together :)
And finally, the final product of the proposal ring :)
