1. What is important in an engagement ring?
When choosing a ring, there are many points to consider, such as ease of wearing, comfort, the number and size of diamonds, and design, but many people probably think, "I want to choose a cute engagement ring that I'll want to wear all the time!"
What people look for in an engagement ring varies from person to person, but according to the "Wedding Information Magazine Trend Survey 2023 Metropolitan Area," the most important factor when choosing an engagement ring was design (78.7%), followed by price (36.2%), quality of the stone (31.5%), and brand (28.3%) (343 survey respondents) .
1st Place: Design
2. Price
3. Stone quality
4. Brand
However, even though design is a single word, it can be difficult to choose because everyone has different tastes. Recently, more and more couples are choosing rings together, and custom-made rings are recommended because they can create a one-of-a-kind design that is just for you .
2. What is generally considered a cute ring?
Women's ideal engagement ring is one that is cute and stylish. So, what makes a highly designed and cute ring?
When we talk about high design, we mean things that are sharp and cool, have a gorgeous feel, or are unique and different from what others have , but people who normally like feminine and adorable fashion, or who like cute, grown-up accessories and miscellaneous goods, tend to prefer engagement rings with designs that they perceive as "cute."
While what kind of design is considered "cute" varies from person to person, generally many people seem to imagine "small and delicate designs," "feminine and curvaceous designs," "rounded designs," "designs with sparkling, dainty diamonds," "designs incorporating pink," and "designs with adorable motifs."
3. Will you continue to wear your engagement ring after marriage?
We now know that women place importance on design and cuteness when choosing a ring. However, a common question is, "Can I wear an engagement ring on a daily basis?"
Many people receive an engagement ring when they are proposed to and then after marriage they only wear it on special occasions or keep it in a safe place, but there is no rule that says you can't wear an engagement ring after marriage, and some people wear it all the time because they like it.
Many people who wear rings on a regular basis seem to choose their rings with an emphasis on design and comfort that allows them to be worn on a daily basis, even from the selection stage onwards.
4. Engagement Ring Prices
Generally, the average price for an engagement ring is said to be around 300,000 to 400,000 yen. The price will vary depending on your age and budget, but a ring that will last you a lifetime is by no means cheap.
On top of that, preparing a wedding ring can cost an additional 250,000 to 300,000 yen, so recently many people are keeping their investment in engagement rings to a minimum and using that money for other things.
Although it depends on the design and the quality of the diamond, the average price of an engagement ring (approximately 300,000 to 400,000 yen) would be about 0.2 to 0.3 carats in carat weight. Incidentally, 0.4 carats are not widely available on the market, so if you have a little more budget than the average price, we recommend choosing the slightly larger 0.5 carat.
The price is roughly proportional to the carat size, and as a guideline for stones less than 1 carat , the price increases by about 100,000 to 200,000 yen for every 0.1 carat increase.・From 0.5ct: Approx. 500,000 yen
・From 0.7ct: Approx. 800,000 yen
・From 1ct - Approx. 1 million yen
・From 0.5ct: approx. 150,000 yen
・From 0.7ct: From approx. 170,000 yen
・From 1ct ~ approx. 200,000 yen ~
While diamond-studded engagement rings are often given as presents, in recent years , rings and jewelry using lab-grown diamonds have been attracting worldwide attention. Lab -grown diamonds have the exact same properties as natural diamonds, except that they are created in different environments, making them environmentally friendly and sustainable diamonds.
These diamonds can be purchased at about half to one- third the price of natural diamonds, so more and more people are making rings with diamonds that are slightly larger than the average.
5. We recommend lab-grown diamonds, which come in a wide range of options
Natural diamonds include colored diamonds such as red and blue, but most of them are pale in color, and those with deep, vivid colors are extremely rare and valuable. In comparison, lab-grown diamonds have a wide range of sizes, shapes, and colors to choose from, so a major advantage is that you can enjoy colors and sizes that are not normally available with natural diamonds.
In addition, because they are affordable and there is a wide range of colors and shapes to choose from to suit your taste, they are also popular with people looking for more unique designs.
In particular, a custom-made ring makes it possible to create a stylish, cute, and unique engagement ring while keeping the budget for the ring low.
At BRIGHT&BREEZY, you can order custom-made jewelry featuring lab-grown diamonds, including engagement rings and wedding rings. Our experienced staff will provide detailed counseling for each customer, so please feel free to consult with us about your desired design and budget.
I hope you find a wonderful ring that will become a lifelong memory.
