Choose A Stone Wedding Ring

Sapphire

This is the birthstone of September babies. It represents truth and serenity. Hence it is just right for a wedding ring. Sapphires though generally blue can also be found in a rare pink color, or even green or white or lilac or yellow. But in case of a wedding stone the Australian deep blue sapphire is my suggestion. It will look almost black and is the best quality sapphire.

Ruby

This is the birthstone of the July born. It has qualities like love and enthusiasm. It also is believed to have a lot of strength, thereby infusing qualities such as strength in the relationship. It is of deep blood red color, but rarely found pink rubies are also used for wedding rings.

Emerald

For an alternative wedding stone, you can always bank on emerald. It represents love and fidelity and is also quite valuable in the jewelry world. But a flawless emerald is dreadfully hard to find, as it is rather uncommon. The emerald has to be taken proper care of. Otherwise, it can crack, break or chip.

Emerald is known to be the birthstone of the May born and has a deep, rich green color. So why not go for it as your wedding ring if green is your favorite color.

Aquamarine

Are you thinking of a truly rare and unique combination for a wedding ring? Then go for a combination of pale blue aquamarine with stunning diamonds placed on platinum or even white gold ring. Aquamarine stands for happiness and understanding and is considered to be the birthstone of the March born.

Garnet

Garnet being a semi precious stone may be clubbed with diamond to make a delightful wedding ring. It is the birthstone for the January born. We find it in various colors.

Generally maroon there may also be a dash of orange in such stone. More rarely green diamonds also occur. Garnet is a stone that stands for truth and eternity, love and faith. So garnet may easily be used as a wedding ring.

Diamond

Last but not the least is diamonds, the most commonly used stones for wedding rings. Diamond rings are such that can be used for a daily wear. Moreover, diamond having the greatest sparkle is considered to have fire in it.

Diamonds can be cut in various shapes and, therefore, give a variety to the rings. Though mostly white, there are also some colored diamonds like pin k, red, blue green and so on.

Wedding ring not only is a jewel, it represents a whole relationship. Hence it should be made of such a stone that reflects the class and personality of the couple.
