If you want her to say yes, don't skimp on the ring. This is a "WOW" ring that WILL get attention- it is GORGEOUS and looks like new.
This was originally appraised at $12,870! Please see appraisal from when it was purchased. I just took this to a jeweler who commented that it was a beautiful ring and value from appraisal should not be much different than a few years ago. He said they are familiar with this appraiser and if this were new with this appraisal they would sell it for a little over $9,000 retail. The jeweler buffed out any little scratches, checked the prongs etc (which were fine) and cleaned it, so it looks like new - it is such a lovely, lovely ring.
This ring has a nice big diamond she will be proud to wear and you'll be proud to see on her. Very feminine and classy.
Center diamond is 1.5 carats surrounded by .5 carats of smaller diamonds. Rating D/VS-2. Beautiful clarity.
14k yellow gold (hard to find real yellow gold rings anymore!).
I will have to check on the size, it will fit slightly larger fingers, can be resized of course.
I am VERY picky and this ring is GORGEOUS. It is barely used, it was sadly only worn for a little over a year, if that as it was off my finger a while even during that time. It has been sitting in a box in the closet and it's time to let it go with wishes of love, happiness and blessings.
I do know of a wedding band that could work with this if desired. It was almost ordered and my jeweler still probably has the info.
