At Van Craeynest it's our goal to help you recognize quality in diamonds and jewelry, so you make the right choice. When purchasing gold wedding rings, look carefully at the construction and quality of workmanship. The way the piece is designed, constructed and finished will have a major impact on how well the piece wears and holds up over time. Look to see that the setting has a karat stamp and trademark stamp on it somewhere. Look under magnification to see if the stones have been matched within size, color and clarity. Also look to see if they have been set straight (parallel in the setting) and that they are evenly spaced apart.
