Mens Diamond Rings
A century ago, the term "mens
diamond rings" would have been considered
something of an oxymoron. Well into the mid-twentieth
century, it was rare to see any man sporting
a diamond ring -- with the notable exception
of Liberace, of course. Men's diamond rings
were spurned even as wedding
rings; most men made do with a plain
gold band, so that they could spend more
money on their bride's ring (as is proper).
But later in the century, as more men began
to consider 'bling' a God-given right, men's
diamond rings caught on -- not just as wedding
ring or an engagement rings, but sometimes as
purely personal decoration.
The type of mens
diamond ring you choose for yourself is up to
you, but it says a lot about your personal style.
Say you want to sport mens diamond rings like the
ones the rap stars wear, with their rocks the size
of Rhode Island; that says one thing. If, on the other
hand, your favored style of men's diamond ring is
quiet and discreet, that says another. It might just
say you're broke and can't afford those mens diamond
rings with rap-star stones, but hey -- that's something!
Here are some popular mens rings found on our site,

Many American men still prefer the minimalist look, which
is why one of the most popular styles of men's diamond
rings takes the form of a 10-karat gold band sporting
a channel filled with baguette-cut
diamonds. These mens
diamond rings are very affordable and
are especially popular as wedding rings. They make life
simple: they don't tarnish, they don't get caught on
stuff, and they don't cost too much. Furthermore, the
10K gold is sturdier than alloys with a higher percentage
of gold. With the silvery-gold luster that's unique
to this alloy, this men's diamond ring offers a great
look without adding any significant complications to
one's life.
You can, of course, go overboard with mens diamond rings.
We've already mentioned the Liberaces and rappers of the
world, with their massive men's diamond rings that
take a lot of upper-arm strength just to lift. If you're
looking for a little flash and have $10,000 in your pocket,
consider a style that's starting to get a lot more attention:
imagine a pure platinum
ring half an inch wide, completely paved with 70-100
small diamonds totaling
in the multiple-carat range (and yes, it's a pavé setting).
No one who saw such a ring would be able to take their
eyes off it. Be careful, though, when you go out in the
sun: you might blind someone with a men's diamond ring
like this one! If your means are more modest but your
tastes aren't, there are always less extreme but nearly
as flashy men's diamond rings simply studded with stones,
ranging from about $1000 on up.
The point is, you can find mens diamond rings of many types,
with stones of all sizes. There are men's diamond rings
out there suitable as a quiet matrimonial reminder, just
as there are mens
diamond rings that are much more flashy. Just keep
in mind the four Cs of diamond shopping -- cut, clarity,
color, and carats -- and you'll be fine. If you do need
