Hi,
Thanks for putting together such an amazing website. Its tremendously informative and helpful.
I am looking for a diamond engagement ring. And reading your website I am thinking of buying from James Allen. Here is what I have thought so far:
– round diamond
– solitaire
– platinum ring setting
Overall I am trying to stay within $1800 for the whole ring, which probably means a diamond that’s probably just under $1000. Do you think that’s possible? As this would be my first diamond gift I would want the diamond to look great to the naked eye. I know my budget is not much but maybe you can suggest something that’s just right.
This is the ring I am looking at but I am okay to select a different ring setting if this one is not a good match for the diamond:
PLATINUM BYPASS ENGAGEMENT RING
Really appreciate your help with this and waiting to hear back from you.
That setting is gorgeous! If you like it, there is no reason to change it for anything different.
Here are two diamonds that would look amazing in it:

They both are eye-clean, well cut and will look very bright and brilliant. I chose a J color as it gives you the best value and it won’t look yellowish at all.
Check them out and let me know what you think. I checked the certs as well and both diamonds are cut beautifully.
I am thinking of this combination:
Ring setting: PLATINUM CROSS PRONG DIAMOND ACCENT SOLITAIRE RING
It’s a beautiful diamond.
If you want to put it into the bypass setting, it’s perfect. If you use the other one, get this I color one:
