you might want to take a look on ebay to look for a real diamond ring or maybe a pawn shop will do it instead of a fancy jewerly store...

I bought my fiance's diamond on the internet, it is very high quality, and I got a great deal on it. Buying it from the actual brick and mortar store is less risky, but you are also going to pay big-time for the service and company name.

Diamond is one of the two best known forms (or allotropes) of carbon, whose hardness and high dispersion of light makes it useful for industrial applications and jewelry (the other equally well known allotrope is graphite). Diamonds are specifically renowned as a mineral with superlative physical qualities - they make excellent abrasives because they can only be scratched by other diamonds, which also means they hold a polish extremely well and retain luster. About 130 million carats (26,000 kg) are mined annually, with a total value of nearly USD $9 billion.\n\nThe name "diamond" derives from the ancient Greek adamas (αδάμας; "impossible to tame"). They have been treasured as gems since their use as religious icons in India at least 2,500 years ago—and usage in drill bits and engraving tools also dates to early human history. Popularity of diamonds has risen since the 19th century because of improved cutting and polishing techniques, and they are commonly judged by the "four Cs": carat, clarity, color, and cut. Although nearly four times the mass of natural diamonds are produced as synthetic diamond each year, the vast majority of synthetic diamond production remains small, imperfect diamonds suitable only for industrial-grade use, with gem-quality synthetic diamonds only recently becoming available.

your ring finger on the left hand. in the olden days rich parents would give their daughters promise rings to symbolize they would save themselves for the man who weds them,.. so when they meet a guy he would remove their ring and replace it with an engagement ring....

100% but they are such a low quality diamond that they are used in industry... they're typically very very small, discolored, and fragmented, not the type of stone you'd want to wear.\n\ncheers,\nkc

Because they believe wearing of Jewlry is a sin. In the Bible, it often refers to  ungodly women wearing jewelry and thats part of it.  Plus, they dont believe in materialism , and therefore reject jewlery. But, I believe it is wrong. Because  you may not wear jewelry, yet buying hundred thousand dollars cars. Do you see my thought here.   And, also just because ungodly women wear jewelry , doesnt mean a Godly woman cant. Its not the product, its the motive and heart behind it.   If an evil person takes baths, does it mean we good pppl should stop taking baths?    To me ,it is a moot point, but it is their right to believe as they do.  also, in the ceremony, it says with this ring, I thee wed.  Does that mean you would not be married if you didnt have a ring?  These are the concerns of the sda.    When I married, I would not say with this ring I thee wed, and I am not sda. I am pentacostal.   I just said   In the name of Jesus, I wed you, as God sent you to me. WE wrote our own vows, and it was Christian, but not at all tradational. Just according to Gods word, only way to go.

I believe that a promise ring is more for younger people to give as a lot of promises get broken.  An engagement ring is presented when you ask a woman if she will accept your hand in marriage.

The most expensive gift I've ever recieved from a guy I was seeing was a diamond ring.  It was only .25 carots, white gold.  He was a drunken a**hole and after I had ditched him I gave the ring to a little girl I passed by at a fair because I felt it was bad luck to keep it.  ...I wonder if she still has it... No definately not still with him, really wouldn't mind never seeing him again.  :-)

What I understand from the description of this ring is that the "basket" is actually a bezel that will hold the stone in place. I can tell if you if it is absolutely required only if I see original ring.\n\nBut you must remember that an engagement ring is something that you may want to wear everyday. So stability of the diamond should be of prime importance other than just the design itself. Do not compensate on the setting for a little change in the design.\n\nAsk the jeweler to give you a 3-D image of the prospective change in the ring. I'm sure it will not be too bad if the look differs only from the side. Also see if he can make the "metal bar" decorative. Some rings actually use these bars as the element of interest in the design.\n\nYou can send me a picture of the original ring for more suggestions at surbhi.s.gupta@gmail.com

Cheap jewelry and skin sensitivity.  My wife and I bought 10karat rings when we were first married.  She got a green ring around her finger, but I didn't.  We got 18k rings when we could afford them and the problem went away.  Her body chemistry has a different reaction to mine.

No she does not. An engagement ring is kind of like a trade or a deposit or something. When the man gives it to a woman, she is to marry him. If they don't marry, she has to give it back.\n\nAn engagement ring isn't a gift. It must be returned. Plus, those things cost an arm and a leg.

Usually the couple buys the wedding rings together.  Couples like to have matching sets, so it's easier to get them at the same time.  \n\nWe bought our engagement and wedding rings together, and he paid for the engagement ring but we both paid for the wedding rings since our incomes were combined by then.
