Luxury Diamond Ring FAQs
What makes a diamond ring expensive?
A diamond’s value comes from a combination of rarity, carat weight, and quality. As diamonds increase in size, their price rises exponentially due to scarcity.
Antique cuts such as old mine and old European are even more prized for their history and rarity. The setting itself depending on complexity adds to the total value.
What is considered expensive for an engagement ring?
Generally, an engagement ring is considered expensive when it exceeds $20,000. At this level, diamonds are larger and rarer, and the craftsmanship of the setting further contributes to value. In our collection, rings range from $20,000 to well over $100,000.
Are antique diamonds more valuable than modern ones?
Often, yes. Antique diamonds were cut by hand and have unique faceting, character, and provenance. Their rarity and historical significance can make them more desirable than modern stones of similar size and quality.
How big is a $20,000 engagement ring?
The size of a $20,000 ring varies depending on the diamond’s cut, color, and clarity. In antique cuts, a budget of $20,000 may secure a 2 to 3 carat diamond of unique character, while modern precision cuts may be smaller at the same price. Settings and craftsmanship also play a role in overall value.
