While a kiss on the lips may still be quite continental , diamonds are no longer just a girl's best friend . Since Marilyn Monroe first crooned those immortal words in the classic comedy Gentlemen Prefer Blondes , more and more men have fallen under the sparkling spell cast by diamonds. Today diamond rings are an increasingly popular part of any self-respecting male's wardrobe, if they can afford one.

Throughout history men have worn rings for both functional and aesthetic reasons. Hollywood is crammed with examples of poor souls kneeling down to kiss an Imperial Roman ring in a bid for clemency, or medieval lords rolling their family crest into to a dollop of molten sealing wax. And let's not forget the pirates, whose oversized rings doubled as fearsome knuckledusters.

Back in the 21 st century diamond rings are considerably more discrete than their historic counterparts. Long gone are the days when The A-Team's Mr T represented the pinnacle of male jewellery design and now men can choose from a wide range of styles and designs.

As a rule of thumb men's diamond rings generally have the stones set flush, rather than standing proud of the mount (as you would expect with a woman's ring). Similarly men tend to go for smaller diamonds, often with in conjunction with another gem such as polished black onyx. When it comes to choosing the right setting men typically opt for something 'chunky' in the tradition of a signet ring. However, rules are meant to be broken and today anything goes.
