Sabatina Engagement Ring

Wow what an amazing experience with 1791 Diamonds, right from my first inquiry I was treated like the most important customer in the world. I went into the whole adventure knowing nothing about diamonds but 1791 listened to all the ideas I had in my head and turned them into the perfect engagement ring. Not only did they find me the perfect engagement ring, through the whole process their customer service was just amazing and made me feel confident about the whole process.

After my initial contact with 1791 Diamonds I wasn't concerned at all about ordering the ring online, the 1791 website gives a great representation of the rings and I knew 1791 was going to make sure my design had the perfect diamond in it.

They will find and make you the perfect engagement ring and I would recommend to anyone to put your trust in them instead of a high street store. When it arrived and I opened the beautiful presentation box and found that stunning ring sitting inside I could not have been happier.

We will be going straight back to 1791 to get our wedding bands as soon as we set a date!

I just wanted to give a big thank you for all the work on the ring - it looked even better than I thought it would and my now fiancee loved it!!! The timing was pretty incredible too, as I had planned to go ahead and propose on friday night, without a ring (controversially!) but then to have the ring finished early and literally hours in before the deed was great! So thanks Alice for all your work on the ring and everyone for being cheerful and helpful and encouraging throughout, I appreciate it all!

Sabatina is a beautiful princess diamond solitaire engagement ring from the 1791 Diamonds collection.

Diamond solitaires, such as the Sabatina, are a traditional choice for engagement rings and the square shape of the princess cut diamond has become a popular alternative to the round brilliant stone. There are several good reasons for this. Firstly, princess cut diamonds have more "fire" than most diamond cuts, meaning that they more brilliant and have more sparkle.

The second advantage of the princess cut is that it makes inclusions, or flaws, less visible and any slight yellowish or brownish colour less noticeable, which means that the buyer gets a more attractive diamond at a more reasonable price.

Budget can be a real concern when shopping for diamond engagement rings. An old rule of thumb is that you should spend two months' salary. The Sabatina is extremely reasonably priced at under $2000 and should suit even the most modest budget; which is not to say that this diamond ring is in anyway lacking in style or beauty. For this price, your diamond will be graded I on the colour scale, meaning that it is near colourless; and SI2 on the clarity scale, which means the diamond will be only slightly included.

Let's consider the issue of clarity in more detail. Diamonds of the same size will vary dramatically in price if they are of differing quality. A perfectly flawless diamond is extremely rare and therefore incredibly expensive. Diamonds rated SI will not be flawless but a jeweller's loupe would be required to spot the inclusions (flaws), and very few would actually be visible to the naked eye. 1791 Diamonds only use high quality diamonds for their engagement rings so you can be assured that your Sabatina princess diamond solitaire engagement ring will be stunning.
