Diamond Engagement Rings Specialist

That’s the way it has been described – this blinding bit of dazzle that lights up Emily Blunt’s ring finger. After her role in ‘The Young Victoria’, it’s little wonder that everyone tries to guess if this rock came from one of the pieces of jewellery that she had to wear for the shooting of the movie.

Nothing so dramatic, however – but so much more appealing is the fact that this is her engagement ring, given to her by boyfriend John Krasinski, star of TV series ‘The Office’. Emily Blunt can’t help talking about her role as the young Queen Victoria and she is still captivated by the love between the Queen and Prince Albert. In the movie, she plays the Queen in her teenage years and she is in awe of how selfless the love between the royal pair was.

Jessica Simpson and her mother seem to be dead set on designing and promoting a wedding ring line together with Pascal Mouawad, the celebrity designer. So many stars seem to be keen on launching their own jewellery line today, what with diamond rings, engagement rings and wedding rings being so much a part of the fashion scene. Jessica Simpson seems to be interested in this new area after a visit to Pascal’s home where apparently she bought a 5-carat ring from his Black and White Diamond line.

However, it seems that Pascal is not too keen that she promotes a line of wedding rings and has been trying to dissuade her and her mother from it. He seems to feel that wedding rings are not really suitable for her to push. He is still keen to work with her on a general jewellery line, but not wedding rings. Now we wonder why?

Everyone’s talking about Candice Crawford and Tony Romo, the quarterback for Dallas Cowboys. This American beauty queen has been seen around with a rock on her finger and though everyone thinks it’s a wedding ring, Candice denied it and said it was a ring that she has had for years.

Candice maintains that all the hype is really just rumour-mongering and Tony and she are not engaged. That’s even though the ring on her finger is recent and now pictures of it are all over the Internet. Has the elusive Tony Romo who has dated other blondes like Jessica Simpson and Carrie Underwood finally been caught?

It looks like Tiger Woods’ marriage is at an end as reporters caught his wife Elin without her engagement ring or her wedding ring. Everyone seems to feel that she will probably file for divorce in the new year. Sad, when it looked like there was a chance of them staying together for the children’s sake. In fact, the former model had decided to give the errant golfer a chance.

The thing is, how can anyone take so many skeletons tumbling out of the closet? It looks like the revelations about his amours will never end – each week seems to bring on a new ‘old love’. It also looks like Elin probably feels that Tiger Woods will probably always have a roving eye so better now than later. She’s moved out of their mansion with her children – now the question is, will she move back to Sweden when the divorce comes through? Sources say that she has bought a house there so it looks like maybe she will. A sad ending to what seemed like a fairytale marriage.

Was it just a crazy media story? The rumour mill was abuzz with the impending split of Australian cricketer Michael Clarke and his fiancée Laura Bingle. However, Laura, who is a Speedo ambassador dropped in at one of the Speedo stores in the Gold Coast and her engagement ring was very much in evidence. The couple were engaged in March earlier this year in the US.

Her diamond engagement ring has a diamond that is 4.7 carats and something that huge is very visible. She seemed relaxed and laughed off the rumours about the split saying that she didn’t listen to gossip. She’s been working hard, she said and she does go and watch Michael play whenever she gets a chance. She also said that life was good and the marriage was on. She was happy enough to sign autographs for fans who asked her and to pose for pictures with them.

46-year old Diana Quiroz of South Austin in the USA does not have long to live because she has terminal cancer. She and her husband had been married before a JP in 1997 but she had always wanted to be married in church and she wanted a real gold wedding ring. It was just her lucky day that Jim Kruger of Kruger’s Diamond Jewelers read about her wish in the paper and proceeded to make her dreams come true.

When she came to church to take her wedding vows, she and her husband had already been measured for the wedding rings and she was thrilled to have Jim give them both the rings. Then he surprised her – he gave her a second box containing an engagement ring with a solitaire diamond. She had never possessed a diamond ring before and she was ecstatic. Of course, like any woman would, she cried for joy. The rings were beautiful and they fit perfectly. What a wonderful gesture towards someone who does not have too much time left.

Well, it looked a lot like that so obviously the rumour mills are abuzz with the speculation that he is about to propose to Kate Perry. The star of I Kissed A Girl has been seeing Russell Brand for over a month now – they met at the MTV Video Awards and he has been very open about how he feels about her.

He’s been seen at the London Cartier store looking at diamond rings so is he thinking of popping the question? Sources say that there was one diamond ring that caught his fancy and he even tried it on, gazing at it for a long time. So we think it’s not ‘if’ but ‘when’ and he’ll be proposing soon. Especially when someone who saw him at the jewellers said that his face lit up when he looked at the ring.

In what seems to be a surprising turn-around, Katie Price has said that she is marrying Alex Reid, the cagefighter, putting to rest all hopes of a reunion with ex-husband Peter Andre. She might have hoped to get back with Peter but it doesn’t look like he is willing so she seems to have gone back to Alex and is reconsidering his proposal.

Alex’s representatives confirmed the news of them getting married. He’s got her a diamond engagement ring that costs £9,000 ring and it seems like they will be getting married soon. Apparently, they had looked at and liked a ring at a Cheltenham jeweler that cost £25,000 but Alex had the design copied for £9,000 after borrowing the amount to show her that he was really serious. It’s been a bit of a seesaw in Katie’s life – from one man to the other but it is apparent that finally, hopes of Peter back in her life have gone.

The news is that Uma Thurman and Arki Busson are no longer a couple. So what we and no doubt many people are wondering is what is going to happen with the 8-carat diamond solitaire ring he gave her? Will she return it to him? They’ve been together for a while now and it seemed like Uma was happy traipsing around Europe with him. However, it looks like she has picked up the threads of a career again and while she goes back to acting, he does not follow.

It was all very quiet and dignified and they are just not together anymore. It also looks like the very, very rich hedge fund manager is not so rich anymore after having lost a lot of money in recent financial downturns. He’s always had good taste in women though – Elle Macpherson and then Uma. He’s had two children by the swimsuit model and Uma has two by her ex-husband, Ethan Hawke.

Stuart Hughes’ Goldstriker International in Liverpool is making waves when it comes to unique jewellery. Right now, it’s the iPhone 3GS which is made of 22 carat gold and is encrusted with diamonds. It costs £1.92 million so we’re guessing that there are going to be just a few lucky people who are going to be possessing one of these.

This is a work of art that has been crafted by designer Katherine Hughes. It’s taken ten long months to design and it comes in a granite box lined with high quality Nubuck leather. This is currently the world’s most expensive phone and the diamonds all add up to 68 carats. There is an over-7 carat diamond which is the navigation button and the whole casing is in 22 carat gold. There are absolutely top quality 136 diamonds on the front bezel and 53 diamonds on the rear casing to form the logo. Now that’s what we call a real dazzling number!

What woman can resist the pull of a dazzling diamond ring? Diamonds however, are quietly doing a lot more behind the scenes than just being showpieces in items of jewellery. Diamonds, thanks to their hardness, have always found a place in the cutting and polishing industry but now, they are of great use in the medical industry as well, specifically, in the area of cancer.

Nan-technology has entered the sphere of diamonds as well and researchers have discovered that nano-diamonds can be use in imaging the littlest details of a human single cell. This is of great import in cancer where targeted drugs can now be given for just the diseased cells, minimizing the unnecessary over use of drugs and all the ensuing side effects. Right now, microscopy has helped medical science to make vast strides in every kind of treatment and nano-diamonds are going to take this much further. So they are, in effect, super microscopes.
