Why Men Need Engagement Rings Too (Ansel Adams)

Recently some scientists released a study that said during an average day, the average man says two thousand words while the average woman says seven thousand. I'm not really sure what kinds of scientists study such things and why they think it's important, but they did it anyway. The upshot of it all was a debate over why women talk so much or men talk so little. Men who came to their own defense said it was because men know exactly what to say and how to say it so they don't need that many words. Well, being a man, I know this isn't true. That is one of the reasons engagement rings are so important.

Men may think they know what to say, but when they actually go to say it, it rarely comes out right. Even if it does, they usually say it in such a convoluted way that it makes too little sense to be understood. I'm not going to talk about that mythical time when they say precisely what it means and it is perfectly clear and logical because, much like the Loch Ness Monster and the lost city of Atlantis, I don't believe that it exists. Men actually do think before they speak. It's just that somewhere between the brain and the mouth, signals get crossed and the end result is somebody storming away and the man standing there with a dumb look on his face saying "What did I do now?"

The one advantage to only saying a couple thousand words a day means that men do realize sometimes silence is better and that there are better ways to get your point across than speaking. It is at moments like these that a man's best friend is his professional jeweler. If men have learned anything (and even that is debatable) it is that all the flowery language in the world is no match for a beautiful piece of fine jewelry. They could quote from the greatest love poems of all times or a Bridget Jones movie, but it still won't do them half as good as going out and finding a nice affordable necklace or pair of earrings.

That brings us back to the engagement. Men will struggle to find the right words. They will Google "proposals" and try to emulate what they find. They will make elaborate arrangements for the presentation of the question. Most of them will likely flail. It doesn't matter, though, because if the right engagement rings are there at the time, a man will say it best when he says nothing at all.

Ansel Adams is exceedingly interested in diamonds of all shapes and sizes. He explains about tips on finding diamond rings and diamond engagement rings.

Hand Crafted Jewelry Created the Investment Option of Loose Diamonds (Ellis K Adams)

There has been a bit of a pendulum swing in the world of fine jewelry that is creating new opportunities of which people were not previously aware. One such opportunity is the availability of loose diamonds as an investment. Traditionally, when you went to visit with jewelers, you would be spending time with a crafts person, an artisan who designed and created their own pieces. With the advent of the shopping mall in the 1960's and a shift in the consumer culture where people were becoming more and more drawn to the ease of immediacy, as well as advances in technology made it possible for jewelry to be designed and created on a mass scale. Because the mass produced pieces are more affordable, the element of hand crafted jewelry by professionals artisans nearly disappeared. Today, it has started to come back, and in a big way.

It is a trend that is noticeable in many aspects of the retail world. People are looking to have a greater connection with what they are buying and from whom they are buying. One such movement that is a perfect example of the trend, is the explosive growth of farmer markets, produce co-ops, and restaurants that specialize in farm to table menus. This is due in no small part to the appreciation people have for the process, for what goes into making something special and unique, and for the people who are creating these new opportunities.

The world of fine jewelry is no different. Over the last few decades more and more people, looking for a way to express their artistic longings as well as a desire to be part of something new, have taken to the art of designing and creating jewelry. Once thought to be a dinosaur whose time had come and gone, now local professional jewelers are being sought out. This renewed interest in hand crafted jewelry, as well as the interconnectedness brought about the internet, has introduced people to something that takes the elements of jewelry away from being strictly about appearances and moved it into the world of finance and investments. One of the safest investments that people have discovered is the all but guaranteed value of loose diamonds. Precious metals have always been a commodity that many people relied on to be a safer alternative to the volatility of the stock market. Diamonds are certainly no different, and now that the availability of them has become exponentially more accessible, it is time to take advantage of that and invest in a new and secure future. Ellis is an entrepreneur and freelance writer, specializing in consumer education topics like diamond bracelets and the latest trends in loose diamonds. Her background in marketing and sales helps add a flavorful punch to her writing.
