| Don’t get too hung up on a specific carat weight. Because there is a leap in price between a stone that weighs 0.9 of a carat and a one-carat stone. If you’re going for a three-stone ring, for example, choose an 0.8 carat stone flanked by two 0.4 carat stones: it will be considerably cheaper than a one-carat flanked by two halves. |

| Always go for the biggest you can afford. Some ladies worry about a diamond being too flashy as it is often their first piece of proper jewellery. But everything shrinks with age and they will soon get very used to it, and might regret not going for the bigger one in the first place.’ |
