Here’s a guide for anyone looking to purchase an aquamarine ring, either as an engagement ring or a ring for any purpose. There are a few things that you need to consider in order to make the best decision, and I will go over these factors.

The first step is to visit a high quality jewelry that has a great aquamarine ring inventory – Angara is my top recommendation – their rings are beautiful!

Click here to look at Angara’s aquamarine rings.

1. Aquamarine Ring Clarity

The clarity of the aquamarine gemstone in the ring is the first important factor. Clarity refers to the absence (or presence) of inclusions in the gemstone; the clearer, the better. There are a few different grading scales, including the GIA scale, which is usually used for diamonds, and other scales. Here’s what you need to know:

  • If the aquamarine stone is graded on the GIA scale, look for stones that are either F (flawless), IF (internally flawless), VVS1/VVS2 (very, very slightly included), or VS1/VS2 (very slightly included).
  • Another grade that indicates a high-quality aquamarine is EC, or eye clean.
  • So, you should generally choose an aquamarine that has been graded either EC, F, IF, VVS1, VVS2, VS1, or VS2.

2. Aquamarine Color

This one, referring to the color of the aquamarine, is more up to your personal preference. Aquamarine stones usually range from light blue to deep blue, and some have greenish tints also. There are some technical names for aquamarine color, like “medium blue” and “deep blue”. Generally, the deep, pure blue stones are the most expensive and considered the most valuable. However, the choice of the color of the aquamarine is really up to you. If you would prefer a lighter shade of blue, then by all means, get the lighter shade.

3. Aquamarine Brilliance

The brilliance refers to the stone’s luster and how well it reflects light back to the eye. The higher the brilliance, the better, because it makes the stone come alive with light, shining and bringing out the color of the aquamarine. So, look for a stone that has high brilliance.

Best Places To Buy Aquamarine Rings

Now that you know about what you should be looking for, where can you look for aquamarine rings? These are the online stores that I recommend:

  • Angara – Click the link to view their aquamarine rings.
  • B2C Jewels – Click the link to view their aquamarine rings.
  • Ross-Simons -Click the link to go to their homepage, and search for “aquamarine ring.”
  • Ultra Diamonds – Click the link to visit their homepage, and search for “aquamarine rings.”

Just to get you started, here are some aquamarine rings that I’ve recently found (and that I like!):

Guys, the number one way to get an engagement that your fiancé loves is to let her pick it out herself! However, if you want to surprise her and pick one out herself, here are a few ways to make sure you select one that she’ll love.

First, take a look at the jewelry she already has. Notice the style and metal colors of the jewelry she has now.

  • If she has mainly platinum, then you can be sure that she likes platinum, and you should go with that metal to mount the stone in. Same for white or yellow gold – notice what she has now and follow the pattern.
  • Next, think about the style of jewelry she wears. Is it vintage, antique looking jewelry, or is it more contemporary? Try and find an engagement ring with a similar style as the jewelry she has now.

Also, try and see which jewelry she has and wears the most frequently, versus the jewelry she has and only wears occasionally. The jewelry she wears frequently is obviously going to give you a bigger clue to the kind of jewelry she likes the best and is the most comfortable in. Getting an engagement ring that follows these clues is a good bet.

One exception is if she has a family-heirloom or antique type piece of jewelry that she might only wear occasionally because she wants to preserve it, but adores the style of and would love an engagement ring with similar style.

Take note of her hints

If you haven’t noticed already, she’s probably already dropped hints as to what kind of jewelry she likes the best, even if she wasn’t referring to an engagement ring specifically. Try taking her casually to a jewelry store and see what she comments on. Browse throughout the store, and even tell her that you’re looking at watches if you want to be a little more subtle.

Get a ring that’s proportional to her hands

Think about how her hands look without a ring on them, and the subtle effect that you want her engagement to have on her hands. A long gemstone can make shorter fingers look a little bit longer, and a wide band can make fingers look a little bit shorter.  So, get something that’s proportional to her hand and fingers.

Figure out her ring size

If you can, get a ring that she already wears on her engagement finger and take it long enough to get it sized.

Think about just getting a loose diamond or gemstone

If you get a loose stone, you can show it to her when you propose, and then later you can shop with her to get the rest of the ring put together.

What’s her favorite color?

You might want to get a gemstone in her favorite color. If she likes blue, for example, then get an aquamarine engagement ring. If she likes green, then get an emerald one.

Where to look for engagement rings?

Well, of course I recommend looking at the aquamarine engagement rings I have listed on this site!
