This depends on a variety of factors. Key to the success in finding the perfect eternity ring, is preference in the design iteslf. Some people prefer the channel setting, whilst others prefer the claw set versions. You might be considering the eternity ring to sit with other jewellery. By considering other diamond cuts that will sit nearby, you migh prefer to match the eternity ring to a similar diamond cut. For example, a Princess cut diamond engagement ring will most suit an eternity ring that contains Princess cut diamonds. By choosing a mixed diamond eternity ring, such as baguette and princess eternity rings, you may wish to introduce a different diamond shape into your wardrobe. Another thing to consider is the metal. The Raphael range is available in 950 Palladium, 18ct White and Yellow Gold, and also 950 Platinum. Palladium and Platinum are naturally white metals, the latter being more expensive and luxurious, but similar by ensuring naturally white Hypo-allergenic eternity rings are produced. Another thing to consider is size. Fully set diamond eternity rings cannot be re-sized due to the diamonds being set all of the way around the band. If you feel that a size adjustment might be necessary in the future, it might be worth considering a half eternity ring, which will allow for a size adjustment since the section underneath the finger is just metal alone.

When are Eternity Rings Given?
Eternity rings are subject to much debate about when they should be given. This should be something that you decide alone. Some people prefer to give an eternity ring after a year of marriage, whilst others give them after 10 years of marriage. A very nice occasion for such a ring is the birth of a child (some aptly naming them maternity rings!) Much has to do with the budget and person circumstances of the client. Whatever the occasion, diamond eternity rings truly make one of the most exceptional and prized gifts of love that women simply adore.
Can Eternity Rings Be resized?
Depending on which style you choose, the ability to re-size the ring will be affected. Full eternity rings need to be ordered in the right size, which is essential since the cannot be resized due to the diamonds being set around the entire band. Half eternity rings have room for size adjustments, although alterations above 1-2 sizes should be avoided to prevent disturbance of the settings holding the diamonds. Claw set eternity rings are more forgiving, whereas due to the precision setting of channel set eternity rings, such designs in the Raphael Collection should really not be sized if possible. Reducing the size can open up spaced between each stone, whereas increasing the size, can cause pressure on the diamonds, resulting in damage. We offer a free ring sizer for anyone contacting us, which can be used to find your correct finger size prior to ordering.
