When you lose an engagement ring, a wedding ring, a set of earrings, or any other jewelry that was expensive when first purchased, you might not be able to replace it yourself. When you have taken out jewelry insurance on a particular piece of jewelry, however, then you are able to replace the lost or stolen jewelry without having to pay thousands of dollars once again.

But what exactly are fancy colour stones? The acclaimed expert Claudio Milisenda, head of the Deutsche Stiftung Edelsteinforschung (DSEF), explains: “Within the commercial colour grading system, diamonds with the slightest yellow saturation are the rarest and therefore most precious examples. Colour hues outside of this ‘yellow sequence’ are known as fancy colours. Their worth increases dramatically in line with their colour saturation. The rarest fancy coloured diamonds include red, green and blue examples.

The term fancy colour is not limited to diamonds, however. “In the trade it is also used for corundum in particular. The corundum variant coloured red by the trace element chromium is known as ruby, the blue variant sapphire. All other corundum varieties are referred to as fancy coloured sapphire,” says Claudio Milisenda, describing the unique natural kaleidoscope.

  1. Buying Engagement Ring Select the Metal Type 

When choosing the metal for the ring there will be a few options that you are going to come across. Yellow gold is a traditional and popular choice, however, many people are choosing white gold due to its versatility and durability. These days rose gold has come out as the popular choice of metal for a ring. The metal is stronger than both the above metals and looks quite trendy.

  1. Lifestyle of the Person 

As the engagement ring is going to be on her finger all the time, it is necessary that the design of the ring which you choose must match her lifestyle. You don’t want to make her feel uncomfortable while wearing the ring. The purpose of the engagement ring to showcase your love for her.

As the engagement ring will demand a considerable investment from your end, the last thing you would want is that the ring gets damaged or misplaced. Just like all our precious commodities, an engagement ring should be insured. You should always buy the ring from a jeweler which offers a warranty on it.

  1. Setting of the Ring Makes All the Difference 

A ring’s setting can make a huge difference in determining the overall appearance of the ring. One major aspect of the ring setting is the way in which the stone is connected to the band. You can go on to choose a large stone as the focal point or even select the cluster of small stones. The right setting will enable the diamond to shine more and appear bigger. 

  1. Both the Rings Must Complement Each Other 

Like we discussed in one of the points above, taking opinion from your significant other will make the selection of the ring an easy process. Similarly, if both the fiancé and the fiancée both go and choose a ring for each other then they will end up in selecting the best ring. As the couple must look great together, in the same way, the two rings must also complement each other.

  1. Invest Your Time 

You should have a look at all the different engagement ring designs that are available in your budget range. As buying an engagement ring is a one time investment you should ensure that no stone is left unturned in making the right choice.

Unique Timepiece for a Good Cause

Frederique Constant has been a proud partner of Only Watch since its first edition, and will do so again this year, presenting a unique timepiece for auction.

Only Watch

The Only Watch charity auction has been supporting the fight against Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. The funds collected through this event are entirely donated to scientific and medical research. Only Watch brings together watchmaking groups and independent brands that express, through variations of exceptional timepieces, the fruit of their work.

 Unique Timepiece for a Good Cause

 

Special Edition of the Manufacture Perpetual Calendar

As a passionate supporter of charitable foundations, Frederique Constant continues to show its support to this noble cause. This year, the brand does so with the Perpetual Calendar, which has been praised as one of the most reliable and affordable grandes complications in the industry. For this exclusive Only Watch edition, the brand wanted to present a variation of this timepiece that is incredibly jaw dropping. The timepiece features the functions of a perpetual calendar, such as hours, minutes, moonphase, date, day, month and most importantly the leap year. All in an 18k polished rose gold 42mm case with a see-through back case revealing intricate Perlage and Côtes de Genève decoration on the FC-775 in-house caliber. However, what makes this piece truly exclusive is the one-of-a-kind meteorite dial giving the once classic timepiece, an edgy twist! Meteorite stones are often found in desert areas; in this case, the one used for this unique piece was uncovered in the desert of Namibia. A perpetual calendar perpetuates the endless passing of time, this unstoppable force by which all of mankind’s actions are defined. It was only fitting that the brand chose a material that has most likely wandered through space for millions of years before hitting earth to symbolize the etherealness of our lives, a symbol of eternity and a message to live to the fullest, making every minute count.

The Only Watch biennial auction will take place on November 11th 2017 in Geneva. Frederique Constant is very pleased to once again be part of this distinguished event and continue its contribution to the fight against DMD.Unique Timepiece for a Good CauseFC-775MT4S9
