Question : How much would it cost to put engagement ring stones into 2 separate rings?
My fiancee proposed to me about 3 months ago. He knew the general style I wanted and did a pretty good job. It is a princess cut diamond (about .33 carats) with 4 square side stones on each side, 1 carat total weight. I liked it for a while, but I have always wanted a solitaire ring. How much would it cost to put the center stone into another ring, and then turn the side stones into the wedding band?
Answer:
you'll have to take it to a jeweler to find out. you;ll have to get a mounting, which is basically just the band, for both. If they are just plain it should cost probably a few hundred per ring. But I don't know what it would cost to actually set it.

Question : Will the channel diamond band match with a solitaire?
My fiancee got me a round diamond band because he didn't know the etiquette of the rings. Now I don't know what type of ring to get with it. Can I still get a 2 carat Solitaire ring with a round channel diamond band to go with a diamond channel band. A jeweler told me that a solitaire must be a bigger size carat from the band in order for it to stand out. HELP!
Answer:
Go in and try it on. That will make all the difference. You just need to get in there with the rings and play around with it. I was wanting a huge solitaire before my hubby and I first went ring shopping. I had it all planned out a min 1.5 ct princess cut in a cathedral white gold/platinum setting. Totally looked horrible on my hand. In fact, anything big just looked way out of whack. So I ended up with a .75 ct with channel set diamonds all around it and a matching channel set diamond band. It wasn't what I dreamed of... but on my hand it looked more amazing than anything. So lesson... you really have to play around to see what looks best on you!

Question : Diamond solitaire engagement rings - best value in US or UK?
I have just got engaged and am now looking for my engagement ring. As I am currently in the US, I was wondering whether diamond solitaires are better value here or in the UK (in general, not just taking exchange rate into account)? I am specifically looking for white gold, princess cut up to half a carat.
Answer:
Is there a comparison shopping site for UK diamond retailers? If so, the easiest way to decide this would be to plug similar specifications into the UK site and http://www.diamondpriceguru.com/ or a similar US diamond search engine. It checks about 10 different US-based retailers, including some I've seen in other answers, like Amazon.com and Mondera and Blue Nile. So, you tell it what you want, even give it a range of clarity grades, color grades, etc., and it shows you all the matches and each retailer's price for it. It's very handy. I just don't know of one specific to UK retailers. One note, the search engines focus on loose diamonds because the prices are better if you buy the diamond and setting apart and have them combined. Pre-set rings carry more of a markup since the retailer knows the shopper won't pull it apart to inspect the diamond grade. I plugged in "princess cut, up to .5 carat" and and 8,463 diamonds were found. You can narrow it down, of course. I narrowed it to color grades J and higher, with clarity grades VVS2 and higher and it found 2,470 matches. Anyway, it's simple to play around with these online tools, and they do the work for you.Happy hunting!

Question : Are solitaire engagement rings too old fashioned?
Ok so Im going through the process of picking a ring out and most stores Ive been too tell me solitaires aren't popular anymore and that the "In" thing is diamond rings with the lady's birthstone to compliment it. Also these swirly looking designs are in style, sorry but I don't remember what they are actually called. Any advice, thoughts or comments would be great.
Answer:
No the solitaire engagement ring is a timeless classic. If you think you intended will like it go for it. My husband took me to pick the ring and I chose a white gold diamond solitaire. Simple and beautiful. But that's really up to what you feel your girlfriend will like. Just remember she has to wear it for the rest of her life so you can't just give in to a fleeting fashion that may disappear by next year. Just pick something you know is her style.

Question : Did anybody try to sell a diamond or a solitaire ring to a jeweler be4 ?
how much was the solitaire ring and what was the offer of the jeweler ???and was that jeweler the same guy from which u've bought ur ring or different one ?ZOSER & LOVELY DIAMOND@@@@THANKS FOR UR EFFORT FOR THOSE WHO JUST BUYCAN U DETERMINE THE COLOUR , CLARITY AND THE PRICE PLEASE ?
Answer:
well,,, the Diamond prices depends on 3 aspects:the cut,,the purity(clarity) and the color,,,, it is impossible to determine the price without knowing those three aspects + of course the weight of the single stone in crates,,,,then the Diamond with an INTERNATIONAL certificate has better resell price than the one without (most likely the one without is blood diamond -long story)... most the stones with certificate can be sold back to the company which issues the certificates,, Not less than the buying price (Gazan as an example : international diamond trader/certificate issuer..)------------------Dear, I have been living in Guinea?south Africa, then Belgium and Holland,,the first ones are the biggest producers of diamond,, the seconds are big in trading them,, Not showing up! but I do can with some limits know about diamonds,, There is one more aspect decide the price of course,,,which is the Crown depth to the pavilion depth,,(as the crown is the part shown outside the ring,,if it is bigger of course that mean that the stone is (more expensive)(beside the crown angle as well),,, anyway with suitable (loupe ) I can see the color, the cut easy,, as for clarity,,it is very difficult to know the difference between the perfect stone (F or the IF ) and the Vvs1 (no flawless. or very very small imperfiction)...The best always to look for the certificateHere is a web page to you and others to see how diamonds are evaluated,,,Now last year In Belgium( and that is almost in all the world) one carat stone,,, colorless, VVs1 brilliant round cut,,, was in between 4000/3500 euroBy attention, the fact that the one carat is X (le) does not means that 1/2 is 1/2X,,, it does not work that wayas the bigger the diamond is the rare it is,,, so if the 1/2 carat =x le,, that may mean the one carat is 3/or 4 X,,,but again it depends on lots of aspects as I mentioned aboveHere is a very useful chart,,, this one is in all diamond traders framed on their tables,, for client to read,,(at least abroad)http://www.jewelbasket.com/aboutdiamonds.html

Question : Is a solitaire the traditional engagement ring?
My boyfriend and I have been shopping for engagement rings recently, and I found the ring of my dreams. It's a princess cut, three-stone ring with a pave band. But I've heard that traditionally you recieve a solitaire for and engagement ring, and three stones are more for anniversaries. Are three-stone rings popular engagement rings, or should I look at solitaires?
Answer:
I've seen people with engagement rings with 3-stones, but generally they are more of side stones surrounding the larger middle stone. Usually the middle stone is supposed to stick out the most. Rings that have all three diamonds the same size signify past, present, and future, and are usually saved for anniversaries (as you mentioned). But, if thats what you like, then who cares? You'll be wearing this engagement ring pretty much every day for most of your life, so you might as well get something you're in love with.
