Which diamond shapes will be most popular in 2024? Fashion is ever-changing, and the same goes for diamonds.
While most people are aware that sapphires usually have a rich royal blue color, you may not know that sapphires come in pretty much any color of the rainbow! Sapphire colors such as blue-green, green, lavender, orange and yellow, and even the classic white color allow you to create a beautiful engagement ring that is unique to your style. Of course, the traditional deep blue color of sapphires is also a great choice and we have seen an increase in couples choosing engagement rings with sapphires over the classic diamond rings both to get a unique color but also to get a larger center gemstone, without it becomes more expensive — rather, on the contrary.
Sapphires are usually cheaper than diamonds with similar shape and carat weight. Because of this, white sapphires are a popular alternative to diamonds for engagement rings. For couples who want to maximize the size of their center stone while staying within a certain budget, choosing a sapphire over a diamond ring can make a big difference.
While a diamond is the hardest mineral with a 10-rating on Mohs scale for hardness, corundum (the mineral family for sapphires and rubies) is the second hardest mineral with a rating of 9. Due to its hardness, sapphires are fantastic gemstones for everyday use and jewelry , which will be used a lot as engagement rings. Sapphires also do not have “cleavage”, which means they do not break when hit. Caring for sapphires is also relatively easy: Regular cleaning with warm soapy water is all that is needed to keep a sapphire center stone sparkling.
If you like the look of sapphires but prefer diamonds, our engagement rings are a beautiful way to incorporate both as they are available with side diamonds and a larger center sapphire. Of course, we also make all our engagement rings with center diamonds on demand.

The Tape Method
1. Grab a tape measure, string, or strip of paper.
2. Wrap it around the finger you’ll wear your ring on—if you’re creating a ring stack, consider where on your finger the ring will sit—and mark where it joins with a pen.
3. Lay your string or paper strip on a flat surface and measure the length up to the mark using a ruler. Use the chart above to match the measurement to the closest Abelstedt ring size.
Measure an Existing Ring
1. Choose a ring that already fits the finger well.
