Alright. I’m going to be honest here and be a snob. I hate these rings. Men, STOP BUYING THESE RINGS for your girlfriends/fiancees/wives/whatever. They’re hideous, cheap looking and a complete cheat.
You can’t just piece together tiny diamonds into a square, add their individual carats together into a carat total weight and then present this as if it’s the giant rock that it’s supposed to resemble. That’s cheating! Especially if it takes 9 tiny stones to make it look like one big one. 9. NINE. That’s a lot of cheating going on.
Here’s my other issue with this style: the beauty of any single stone ring (yes, even CZ ones) lies in the stone itself: the cut and clarity reflect the light so beautifully. Any surrounding stone is just there to compliment or draw your eye to the center piece. That’s why it’s called “bling,” not “blings.” But these multi-diamond atrocities? All it does it create an annoying, flashy sparkles so you go blind trying to look at it.
Wait, maybe that’s the point: you can’t see past all the flash to realize that it’s not really a gigantic diamond.
So guys, please. Stay away from these. If you buy these rings because they’re somehow a “deal” in getting more carats for your buck, then rethink your plan. It’s not necessary to give her a huge diamond. Spend the money on something smaller and more classic. Or find a new girlfriend to propose to.
