Choosing an engagement ring is about more than diamonds and settings—it’s about celebrating your unique love story. Every detail, from the design to the stone, should reflect your partner’s personal style and your shared journey. Let us help you find the perfect ring that’s just as special as they are.

1. Match their personality to the perfect ring style

Before anything else, consider their personal style. Do they love classic, timeless pieces, or do they prefer modern, bold designs? Each ring style complements a different personality and taste:

Solitaire: Ideal for someone who loves minimalism and timeless elegance. Its simplicity lets the diamond shine.

Halo: For those who adore sparkle and glamour, a halo adds brilliance with a touch of vintage charm.

Three-Stone: A romantic choice symbolising your past, present, and future together.

Cluster: Ideal for bold, creative personalities who value unique and artistic designs.

Gemstone: Vibrant and meaningful, these rings suit someone who loves to stand out or treasures their birthstone.

Four & Five Stone: A beautiful option for those who appreciate symmetry and understated luxury in everyday wear.

2. Observe their jewellery preferences

Pay close attention to the jewellery they already wear:

Metal: Do they prefer yellow gold, white gold, or platinum?

Stones: Do they favour classic diamonds or colourful gemstones?

Style: Notice whether they prefer dainty, minimalist designs or bold, statement-making pieces.

3. Understand the 4Cs of Diamonds

Knowing the 4Cs—Cut, Colour, Clarity, and Carat—is essential for choosing the perfect engagement ring. These key factors will help you select a diamond that beautifully combines quality, style, and meaning.

Cut: A well-cut diamond maximises brilliance, capturing and reflecting light to create a captivating sparkle. Timeless cuts like round, princess, and oval are enduring favourites for their elegance.

Colour: Diamonds are graded from D (completely colourless) to Z (light colour). At Keanes Jewellers, we recommend selecting a grade between D and H for diamonds with exceptional purity and beauty.

Clarity: This refers to the natural imperfections in a diamond.

Carat: The size of a diamond is deeply personal. Whether your partner loves a subtle sparkle or a bold, statement piece, Keanes offers a wide range of carat sizes to match their style and your story.

4. Plan your budget with ease

An engagement ring is a meaningful investment, but it doesn’t need to be overwhelming. Start by setting a realistic budget and remember that at Keanes Jewellers, you’ll find a wide range of options for every price point.
