METAL
Unsure on what metal to get? Not a problem, this one is easy. To put it simply, your best
bet is to go with whatever she currently wears.
Fergus James Top Tip
If she has always worn iconic gold jewelry, then go for Rose or Yellow Gold. If she has
always worn silver shades, then go for White Gold or Platinum! Each colour offers its own
unique spark to your ring in its own way. In terms of popularity, White Gold leads the
ranks, but the others offer just as much energy!
Having trouble deciding on which style will look the cleanest? Fergus James offers 4
different types of ring styles. We offer the more classic option with the Solitaire band,
but also offer additions with our Diamond Band, Halo and Trilogy rings.
Fergus James Top Tip
Once again, the ring style is a personal choice completely up to you and your partner.
Some prefer a simple band to show off the center stone and others prefer have diamonds in
additional to the center stone. Our 4 ring styles offer a strong variety to match
everyone’s choices. You can’t go wrong!
Elegant or eccentric, sparkly or subtle? From the ever popular round brilliant to the more
unusual Marquise cut, diamonds come in all shapes and sizes and there is sure to be one to
suit every taste and style.
Fergus James Top Tips
Simply put, there’s no right or wrong answer! Its all down to your, or your partners,
personal taste. Whilst some people prefer some variety, the round diamond is by far the
most popular: Eight out of ten engagement rings contain a round diamond. Fergus James
apply the same standards across our entire selection process. We have access to one of the
largest diamond marketplaces, with some of the finest diamonds in the world. The diamond
shapes are ordered in terms of popularity from left to right on our website.

Lab Grown Diamonds
Laboratory-grown diamonds are a great option if you are looking for an affordable alternative to
natural diamonds without compromising on brilliance and quality. Created through an advanced
technological process designed to mimic natural conditions, lab-grown diamonds are chemically
identical to mined diamonds. Remember, the grading method used for natural diamonds also applies to
synthetics. Be sure to look out for clarity, colour and cut, as these factors will determine the final
price of your diamond.

RING SIZE
If you know your partners ring size, you can select the size from the sizing options drop
down provided. However, if you are unsure, simply select the “I don’t know” drop down
option and a member of our team will help and guide you once your order is complete.
Quick tip: Fashion rings are generally looser fitting than engagement rings as they are
made to be easily taken on or off, however with an engagement ring it should be slightly
tighter to avoid it sliding off.
Remember, if you get the size wrong, we offer free resizing in Dubai, London, New York,
Dublin and Brisbane with our trusted partners, so you can put your mind at ease.
ENGRAVING
Customise her ring with a personal engraving for that extra special touch. All engravings
are optional and come at no additional cost. Good examples are special dates, initials,
nicknames and symbols such as hearts or infinity.

THE CERTIFICATION
Diamond certificates are issued to confirm a stone’s technical characteristics, value and
identity. The GIA (The Gemological Institute of America) have set the worldwide standards
in diamond grading since 1931 and have continued to lead the grading standards since. For
example, when GIA grades a diamond as a D then the diamond is a D. When other institutes
grade a diamond as a D colour, the GIA may not consider the diamond as a D as it may not
be measured to the same standards as the GIA.
Fergus James Top Tips
All diamonds at Fergus James are GIA certified diamonds, this is so we can ensure we’re
giving our customers the very best according to international standards set by GIA.
POLISH
Polish refers to the final finish of a diamond used to smoothen out a diamonds facets to
achieve a glass like surface. GIA examines all diamonds under 10x magnification to grade
the diamonds final polish features ranging from excellent to poor.
Fergus James Top Tips
Based on years of practical experience, Fergus’ top tip is to stick within the Excellent
to Very Good range for polish, there is no visual difference between Excellent and Very
Good. So don’t let an otherwise perfect stone go if the polish is Very Good.
SYMMETRY
Symmetry refers to the precision of how a diamonds facets align as well as how it
interacts with light.
Fergus James Top Tips
Based on years of practical experience, Fergus’ top tip is to stick within the Excellent
to Very Good range for symmetry, there is no visual difference between Excellent and Very
Good. So don’t let an otherwise perfect stone go if the symmetry is Very Good. If seeking
perfection, we would always recommend to look for a diamond with ‘Excellent’ symmetry in
order to optimise the diamonds fire and brilliance.
FLUORESCENCE
Fluorescence refers to the glow of a diamond when seen under intense UV Light.
Fergus James Top Tips
Fergus James subscribes to GIA’s view on Fluorescence; where it is regarded as neither a
good or bad aspect but is purely down to personal preference. If you are looking for
value, strong or medium will work for you. If it feels wrong for you, then aim for faint
or none.
The main myth surrounding Fluorescence is that diamonds with higher Fluorescence are milky
which is incorrect - milkiness can be found in diamonds with and without fluorescence!
Day to Day, Fluorescence is not visible.
CUT
The cut only applies to round diamonds and has the biggest impact on the overall beauty,
sparkle and appearance of the diamond. The cut is the most important aspect of the
selection process. The better the cut the more the diamond sparkles. The GIA only measures
‘cut’ for round diamonds, not fancy shapes (all other shapes such as oval, pear cushion
etc).
Fergus James Top Tips
Round Shape - for maximum sparkle select an excellent cut
Fancy Shape - Focus on diameter and proportions to maximize appearance
Contact - for fancy shapes we recommend you contact our team for help and advice
CLARITY
Clarity is the measurement of natural inclusions found within the diamond. Every diamond,
with the exception of Flawless and Internally Flawless diamonds, have inclusions to a
great or lesser degree. Some inclusions are visible to the naked eye but most are not. The
shape, size and position of the inclusions, as well as the shape and size of the diamond,
all contribute. If the inclusions in a diamond cannot be seen with the naked eye they are
referred to as being “eye clean”. From a practical point of view, there is no visual
day-to-day difference between an eye clean SI1 and a flawless diamond.
Fergus James Top Tips
For Brilliant-Cut diamonds, especially Round shape, you can typically find eye clean
diamonds in the “SI” range and easily within the VS bracket - our curation team are
experts at finding a clean stone so contact us for advice and options.
For Step-Cut diamonds (Emerald and Asscher shapes) you’re best to stick to VS1 or the VVS
range to ensure they are 100% eye clean.
If you find something you are unsure about we are simply a message away! Remember our
curation team inspects every single diamond, so beauty is guaranteed!
COLOUR
The colour scale measures very subtle variances in the shade of a diamond. D has
zero colour shade (perfectly white) whilst Z has a yellow/brownish tinge. The way a
colour appears visually in a diamond depends upon the diamond shape as well has the cut
and the ring setting
Fergus James Top Tips
Round Diamonds are the best at hiding colour
Big Brands - Cartier generally use D-F - whilst Tiffany generally use D-I colour
Fancy Shape - fancy shapes show colour more than round diamonds
Diamond size - the larger the diamond the more the colour shade shows
Halo Ring Designs - select D-G colour for halo ring designs as the colour shows more
in this design
Visual appearance - D-F colors look identical to the naked eye but the price typically
varies considerably
If you are unsure contact the Fergus James team for practical guidance - CONTACT
CARAT
Carat is a diamond’s weight, not its size – how large a diamond appears is also dictated
by other factors such as shape and cut proportions – the following guide shows the
approximate correlation between carat weight and size for all the diamond shapes.
Fergus James Top Tips
Buying a 0.9ct diamond, as opposed to a 1ct diamond only reduces size measurements by
around 5% but reduces the price by around 25%
With round diamonds pay extra attention to the cut – Fergus James recommends excellent
cut for round diamonds - with fancy shapes (all the other shapes) pay attention to the
actual measurements (in mm) outlined on the diamonds GIA certificate.
Diamond prices increase disproportionately when you reach the half and full carat mark
(eg 0.50ct – 1.00ct – 1.50ct – 2.00ct, etc). The value lies just below these
measurements.
Diamonds come in 10 different shapes all of which are unique and offer a different type of
scintillation and sparkle.
You don’t need to get the highest quality diamond to get something that is of equal
beauty.
The price will vary depending on the quality of diamonds in the market, the source of the
diamond and where if was manufactured.
