1. set off without a budget
An engagement ring is an investment - emotionally and financially. If you go shopping without a clear budget, you will quickly lose track or spend more than planned. Tip: Set yourself a realistic framework and get advice within this budget.
2. not knowing your partner's style
She should like the ring. Pay attention to what she wears: plain or flashy, yellow gold or white gold, classic or modern? Maybe ask friends or look at her social media profiles for clues.
3. choose the wrong ring size
Nobody wants a beautiful ring that doesn't fit. Take a well-fitting ring from her jewelry box and bring it with you to the consultation. Alternatively, our size guide will help you. If the ring still doesn't fit, that's no problem at Stellini. We offer all customers a free size adjustment within 60 days.
4. planning too short-term
A high-quality engagement ring takes time. Especially for custom-made rings or engravings. Plan at least 5 to 8 weeks in advance to avoid stress and unnecessary time pressure.
5. underestimate quality
An engagement ring is more than just an accessory - it will accompany you for a lifetime. Pay attention to high-quality materials, certified diamonds and a clean finish. Quality pays off in the long term.
6. only look at the price
Bargains can be expensive - especially if the stone becomes loose or the metal tarnishes after a short time. Cheap doesn't always mean good. Get comprehensive advice from us to find the best value for money.
7. do not pay attention to the 4C
Carat, Cut, Clarity, Color - the famous 4Cs determine the quality of a diamond. If you ignore them, you are quickly buying a sparkling compromise. We will be happy to explain to you what really matters.
8. buy the ring online without advice
Online shopping is convenient - but when it comes to engagement rings, it's the personal touch that counts. At Stellini Diamonds, you can get individual advice free of charge on site or online via video chat. So you're sure to find the right ring.
9. forget the packaging
The ring is only half the battle - the presentation makes the moment unforgettable. An elegant ring box shows how much this moment means to you.
10. no protection in the event of return or adjustment
What if the ring doesn't fit or you want a different model? Clarify the return and exchange conditions before you buy. With Stellini Diamonds, for example, you are on the safe side.
Conclusion
An engagement ring is not just any piece of jewelry - it represents your future together. With a little preparation and the right advice, buying a ring won't be a challenge, but a beautiful memory.
