User Guide: How to Use Sparkly to Find Your Dream Ring

by Blog Editors

This whole getting engaged thing has been around since ancient Rome, so you’d think by now we’d have perfected it. Fall in love, buy ring, propose and marry. Sounds simple right? But like some of even the most loving, committed relationships—it’s complicated! So, we’ve devoted this page entirely to getting down and dirty about diamonds. Read on for tips that will help you pick out the perfect bling!

Before getting into the nitty gritty, here are some things that Sparkly can help with right off the bat (click any of the links to learn more in detail).


Filtering

While other sites can help you find your perfect ring, Sparkly is in a category of its own when it comes to filters. For one, our results are exact. When looking for inspo on other sites (ahem, Pinterest) you might not get exact results based on your search. For example, a search for a 1.2 carat diamond will likely show 1 or 1 ½ carat results, whereas on Sparkly, if 1.2 carats is what you want, 1.2 carats is what you’ll get.

In addition to the standard filters like cut, carat, color, etc., Sparkly lets you search for skin tone and nail color, so you can plan ahead for the big day. 

Filtering on Sparkly means you’ll always get results of real rings on real hands. These are not studio shots. You’ll never see a white backdrop or a standalone diamond. We built this site in hopes to help you picture what your ring would look like out in the real world.
