    about $800.

    It's a 1 carat round cut moissy. white gold band. LOVE it!

    Last time I took it to get cleaned/inspected, the jeweler asked if it was platinum. LOVE my little secret!

    Mine set is appriased at $6,500 but my FI only spent about $2,000 because the (1.17 ct) center stone was my grandmother's.

    I only have a picture of the e-ring, but the wedding band is also pave and matches perfectly.

    Should be about $6k for a .855 round G;VS1;super ideal cut set in 18k rose gold and I think a .5 c in the setting?? Not sure. Haven't seen it or the appraisal.

    ETA: We bought this year and prices are quite high. Also, the setting we wanted was pricing out around $1500 and the diamond was under $4500

    it wasn't MY jewler. I don't have a jeweler. lol. I just pop into a random jewelry store whenever I'm at the mall and ask to have my ring cleaned.

    Before she put it in the little machine, she asked if it was platinum, that's all. No big deal.

    FI paid too much. I mean, he got an AMAZING deal for it, but still more than I wish he paid for a pretty bauble.

    3500 Euros is what the card that came with it says.  He bought it from Lazlo's in Galway if that means anything to Irish bees.  It's a .5ct princess cut solitare in platinum.  I don't know the other specs on it, but I would hope that for that price it's a good quality stone.

    @LiliKitty:  My FI made me promise to never ask him how much he spent on it. So I'm blissfully unaware, though I assume I'd probably feel the same way as you if I did.

    We paid $7600 for the loose stone. 2.4 carat, round brilliant, H color, SI1 clarity. I think the setting (18K white gold 4 prong solitaire) was less than $500

    I think my e-ring was around $3,500 and the wedding band is around $1,000, the center stone is half carat and the wedding band is also about a half carat split into 4 diamonds. I haven't picked up the wedding band yet otherwise I'd post pictures. 

     

    @inky_1:  Yours is predy. I like it!

    Mine was $1800, bought from an antques dealer, .25 carat for the main stone and 0.8 carats for the side stones on a white gold band.

     

    Not sure of colour and clarity... I can look it up when I get home.

    Setting type: Pavé
    Color: F/G
    Clarity: VS2/SI1

    Since it's 6mm wide I opted to not wear/get a wedding band, so my engagement ring is my wedding ring.

    Just under $9k, 0.61cts diamond, F colour VVS1 clarity, brilliant cut, but it's from Tiffany's so that's why the price is so high.
