We are going to be featuring several diamond ring settings with a diamond. I will be reviewing the various featured diamond retailers that I mention in the “Jeweler Ratings” page as well as testing their Design Your Own ring” tools.
Blue Nile Graduated Diamond Ring & Band
Today’s engagement ring is from Blue Nile. I designed it using the Design Your Own Engagement Ring” tool.
It’s a charming, rather elegant and classy ring with many accent diamonds. They have titled it “Graduated Diamond Ring and Band” in platinum.
In this case we have chosen a diamond setting and a band that are made to go together. The ring setting is accented with 10 round diamonds with a total carat of 0.10. The average clarity is SI1 and color is H.
The case of the band is also very similar, however there are 12 diamonds instead of 10. The number of diamonds and carats can vary depending on the size of the ring. This goes for the band as well as the setting.
These are rather standard characteristics. One doesn’t really need to place extraordinary stones into a pave setting since they aren’t really the stars of the show.
The diamond that I chose is a fairly nice diamond of 2.00 carats with color of H, diamond clarity VS1 and Very Good cut. Although the setting can take a diamond size ranging from 0.20 to 2.10 for a round brilliant shape. If your tastes incline more towards a square shape diamond like an princess cut, emerald cut, asscher cut or cushion cut then the top of the carat weight range can be 4.50 carats.
The approximate price tag for the diamond stone, setting and band is the following:
- Diamond: $17,600.00
- Setting: $1,000.00
- Band: $1,000.00
- TOTAL: $19,600.00
