I’m not engaged and the bad news is that I don’t even have a bf but would love to get the engagement ring of Britney spears! Even a replica would be ok!! And one important thing I’d like to say is that I prefer white gold over yellow one

But before all that, I guess that I’ll have to search for the bf first lol!

Here is Britney’s ring


And here is another one that I like very much


Here is another forum where I’ve seen quite interesting things guess you should check it out….the add is What type of engagement ring should the best? - Four Sea Diamonds

all the rings are beautiful but i absolutely love Ashlend's ring i once saw something similar in a beautiful jewellers in London and kept on and on at my husband to have a look at it, but all in vain (I very much doubt he would have bought it anyway) but i love emerald and diamond rings maybe one day !

Here is mine. It is from the Michael B petite crown lace collection, with the matching wedding band. The ring is 1.01 E VS2 RB hearts and arrows diamond purchased from Good Old Gold in Long Island (highly recommend them for diamonds.) And then it was (the diamond) was shipped to Michael B and the ring set was made. The setting has 42 pave diamonds on each ring in D E colour in VVS1-VVS2. I love my ring set, and my husband thinks it was worth it because how much I love it.

My e-ring is set in this setting! I love it so simple and classic. It sets the diamond up with room to let light come in from the sides so your diamond sparkles even more. My diamond is an asscher. I've gotten a lot of compliments on my ring even though the diamond isn't huge, I think it looks bigger than it really is.

Hello, there! I'm a little late on this boat, but --

No, I wouldn't assume that it was fake.

Oh, I don't know -- maybe if I saw a person who looks something like the ladies that work at the high-end spa I go to: they wear tight clothes, cheap but fashionable and sexy, and great, big fake jewels. I might think they're wearing a fake ring in the interest of completing the outfit. But a girl in raggedy clothes? No issues there.

That woman was small and insensitive. There are always people who can't wait to tear you down. Don't let her get to you.

Here is mine



My mother gave me the setting for my 21st bday, I loved it, so we replaced the garnet with a beautiful diamond.

And as to the question above: my sis-in-law to be is fairly lower-class economically (and in other ways ), and she has a pretty huge ridiculous rock. How did they do it? Credit card debt, of course.

This is my wedding ring

wedding ring.JPG

My e-ring is a round cut solitare but I don't have a picture of it on-line. From looking on-line and reading US wedding magazines it appears that there is a tradition for much bigger and more ornate e-rings in the US vs the UK. We tend to go for smaller, simpler diamonds over here. Quite strange to see the differences.

It is the classic Tiffany setting on a plain platinum band. The diamond sits by it self on a gorgeous 6 prong setting.

im too lazy to take pics and upload right now but if anyone wants to see, let me know and i will..hehe..
Hi there,
May I first congradulate you on this wonderful ring! I am looking to get a Tiffany setting engagement ring with a round diamond of a similiar size. Would you mind telling me the price range where yours would fall? Would you mind sending me a picture of it - just so I could have a point of reference, especially with a FL stone? The one I have on offer is a 0.31 E VVS1 for £2150 on a size 6. My email at hotmail is flexicitus. Million thanks.

A.

miss alice-I am little confused... I have some Tiffany diamond rings...They always certify their own diamonds by themselves (by Tiffany lab.)... I don't understand what you mean by you got your ring from Tiffany with GIA certified....?

Am I missing something here? They said they never use any other diamonds but Tiffany lab. certified diamonds...really confused...

^ yeah Tiffany certifies their own...they give you a certificate with the value and everything. They also don't do the heart/arrows cut as far as that know, those go to jewelers such as Bailey Banks and Biddle, etc. I think perhaps she meant Tiffany setting?


Flexicitus, I am not miss alice but a 3.1 carat can range anywhere from about 80k and above, depending on the quality and cut..I'm sure some of the more experienced girls here can chime in...I'm assuming that you are asking for prices at Tiffany? These are also in American dollars by the way :)

I don't know if Tiffany's uses the GIA but the GIA Laboratory is right on 5th Avenue, a short walking distance from Tiffany's in NYC.

I thought the hearts and arrows cut refers to the super ideal diamond cut for any diamond? The table, crown and pavilion measurements are excellent.
