Hello, I am looking to buy a solitaire yellow gold engagement ring with a budget in the range of The wealth of information on your site has been extremely informative and has given me a rough idea what to look for. Most important would be the sparkling or brilliance of the diamond, would you be able to recommend some options? I am having difficulty with maximizing size/price/quality options. Thank you in advance.
I’d be happy to help out. What is your budget and what shape are you looking for?
