| Only the finest independently graded diamond engagement rings at extremely competitive prices. |
Ask your high street jewellers for the price of, for example, a half carat, independently graded solitaire diamond engagement ring in platinum with a round brilliant-cut diamond specification of G colour and SI1 clarity. It's likely to be in the region of £2,750. Now look at the guide prices* below, and see the kind of savings you could make by shopping for your diamond on the internet.
We have chosen G/SI1 diamonds for our guide prices below because those colour and clarity grades represent excellent quality diamonds at an affordable price. Of course, higher grades will be more expensive and lower grades less expensive, so please view the prices given below simply as an indication of the sort of prices you can expect to pay online.
Rings are available in a variety of styles and in all sizes. The guide prices below are for platinum rings and are inclusive of VAT. Please note that when you visit the Blue Nile website, prices quoted are exclusive of VAT:

A major high street retailer is currently advertising a half carat round brilliant-cut solitaire diamond engagement ring in white gold for £995, which appears to almost match our target price of £975 for a G/SI2 diamond ring as shown above. However, the same retailer also has for sale a half carat, round brilliant-cut, white gold solitaire ring, priced at £1,695, for which details of the independently graded diamond are: Colour J, Clarity P1 (= I1). I leave you to draw your own conclusions, but this does illustrate the importance of understanding the 4 Cs, and of buying an independently certified diamond. Caveat emptor!
