Deacons Jewellery Guides

The primary consideration in all diamond sourcing and diamond jewellery creation is the 4C’s. The 4C’s relate to the Cut, Colour, Clarity and Carat of a diamond. Here at Deacons, we pay close attention to the 4C’s with each and every diamond that we source. This is because they are major factors that contribute to a diamond’s value, light performance and simple beauty.

Here at Deacons, we have a beautiful and extensive range of engagement rings that make up our Deacons for Diamonds collection. We understand that looking for an engagement ring may be a daunting process, which is why we have created this guide to help you to become an informed diamond buyer, as well as giving you a better knowledge of the different shapes available.

The setting refers to how gemstones are delicately combined with a ring's metal band. This is usually done by mounting the stones onto the ring, or by setting the stones into the metal. There are many different types of settings; all of which contribute to a ring's overall style, appearance and desirability.
