My boyfriend proposed to me a few days ago. We are looking for a 1 carat center stone for the engagement ring, but his budget is $3,000. Is this possible without getting an ugly diamond? Can I get coupon codes for bluenile.com?
Can you tell me what style of setting (solitaire, halo, pave or other) and metal (platinum/white or yellow gold) your ring is? What shape of diamond you’re looking for?
I’m not sure if I can find a 1 carat or close to 1 carat diamond for you. But everything I mentioned influences my search.
Sure, I’m happy to send you this unique coupon code:[contact us for your own unique coupon code]
I’m not sure what shape… that’s another problem. I only know that I hate marquise shape and that the ring will be white gold. I don’t want solitaire. I want a 1 carat in the middle, but not just a plain band. I do want a very thin band. I like halo. I also like sideways baquette on each side.
Well, round shape diamonds are the most brilliant once and princess cut stones are very romantic. What do you think?
Have a look at this halo setting:
Blue Nile Plain Shank Floating Halo Engagement Ring
Or this ring with baguettes:
Blue Nile Tapered Baguette Diamond Engagement Ring
Let me know which one is your favorite.
I really like both of them. You have great taste! I lean towards the baguettes though. I think I like princess cut for the center. I think that would be classy.
I’m happy you like the settings.
This is the biggest diamond with great overall specifications I found:
Blue Nile LD07611331
It’s very well cut and it’s going to look colorless in the setting you like.
