Now's the time! You want to propose to your sweetheart, so you're on the hunt for the perfect ring. Here are 4 tips to help you find the ring that's sure to sweep her off her feet.

The perfect engagement ring, a vast debate: with or without diamonds, sober and classic or vintage and elaborate, silver or gold - there are as many as there are engaged couples. Increase your chances of finding the right one with these tips. Whichever ring you choose, you'll have chosen it with love and that's what counts.

1. Material

The choice of metal depends on hair colour, skin tone and the preferences of the chosen one. If he/she likes to wear gold, turn to yellow gold. If your loved one prefers other alloys, your choice will depend on a number of factors: warm, light tones go particularly well with blonde hair and fair complexions, while soft pink tones are also possible. For darker hair and skin tones, white gold and platinum are ideal. The cool tones of these materials actually create a lovely colour contrast.

2. Stone size

It depends on the shape of the finger, the build and the preferences of your chosen one. Some women,although petite, like imposing jewellery. Pay attention to the jewellery she wears regularly and take a discreet look in her jewellery box.

3. Ring size

There are several ways to determine the ring size. The simplest is to measure the inside diameter of one of your sweetheart's rings, take one that's neither too big nor too small, that goes without saying. Multiplying the measurement you get by Pi (3.142) will give you the correct size (in German).

4. Ring style

If your sweetheart is very feminine and shapely, the ring should have soft shapes, rounded corners and the band should be wider. If, on the other hand, she is very slender and sporty, then thinner rings with a large stone will be best suited.
