With the festivities in the air and families already getting together, what better time to pop the question than Christmas? There are already a variety of quirky and spontaneous ways to propose during this festive day, so what you really need to focus on is finding that perfect engagement ring.

Most men say that distinguishing the perfect ring for their perfect woman is the hardest element of the proposal. But with some jewellery guidance from us at William May and a few potential ideas for that romantic Christmas proposal, we’re sure you will have the most amazing engagement!

There are a few components of the ring to take into consideration when making the big decision. The top key attributes of the ring to think about is the material of the band itself and the 4 C’s. So what are the 4 C’s? The 4 C’s are the colour, clarity, carat and cut of diamond set within the band of the ring. Which gets us onto the topic of the right material. Would your partner prefer a silver, white gold, yellow gold or platinum band?

But, don’t let all of this overwhelm you, all of these factors are described in detail on our website, or one of our knowledgeable jewellery consultants will be more than happy to help you over the phone.
