Opinions on antique ring

[justeen]

I purchased a ring a couple days ago from a beautiful antique shop. I only paid 50$. Its 10k gold, diamonds are real. But I would imagine are a low quality?
Any opinions on it? Think I got my moneys worth?

It's pretty but antique means something that is over 100 years old; this was probably made within the past 20 years if not more recently. Can't tell but the diamonds look like they might be low quality single cuts. It's also possible they aren't diamonds but white sapphire, or CZ. It would probably cost more than what you paid to get it tested, but if you have a friendly jeweller willing to loupe it, they could tell you more.

If you like it and feel it's a fair price for what you got, that's all that really matters. Enjoy wearing it!

It isn't antique! But looks good.
As far as the diamonds are concerned, they do look low quality, but nonetheless, you must visit a diamond jeweller who can tell you more about the stones! Because often images don't do justice to the real beauty of diamonds.
My advice: get them appraised!

If it's 10K, we are talking about cheap sparkle. Fun, and playful.
If it weighs more than 3.5 grams (you paid less than melt value, so, yes, it was worth it.

If you enjoy it and it makes you happy when you see it, then Yes! Definitely worth it!
