There are a lot of alternatives to diamonding an engagement ring. My name is David Kruger.
I'm with Kruger's Diamond Jewelers in downtown Austin, Texas. Some of the choses that people
make are color stones for center stones in their engagement ring. It's totally a matter
of personal preference and wear ability and also there maybe a consideration as to the
style that somebody wants a much larger center stones and that will lend itself maybe a four
carat diamond but a four carat sapphire or a four carat blue topaz. So, there are a lot
of alternatives and if you're not interested in a diamond as center stone, it will be important
to go to a jeweler who will work with you to select a center stone other than a diamond
that will work. The other alternative to an all diamond engagement ring is colored side
stones. So, you can have your chose of almost any sides or shape of a number of size stones
in any gem stone that you want and a diamond center or you can have diamond side stones
and colored stone center. So, those are some of the options other than a diamond that you
might want to consider. My name is David Kruger. I'm with Kruger's Diamond Jewelers in downtown
