Does Anyone Offer Engagement Ring Financing?

Wednesday, December 22nd, 2010 | Fashion & Accessories | 1 Comment

Does anyone know of places that can sell engagement rings on some type of credit or payment plan. I have some money saved up, but not enough to buy the type of ring I think my fiance deserves so I’m looking for a payment plan kind of financing that I can use a down payment like buying a car. Thanks!

I’m getting my girlfriend a set of diamond earrings for Christmas. I know clarity and color are important when it comes to engagement rings, but is the same true for a set of diamond earrings? What is the average color and clarity of a diamond earring? Thanks!

Would it be difficult to find a jeweler who would set 2 loose diamonds into stud earring settings?

sidnac05 asked:


I have a 1ct. diamond engagement ring that I have no use for. Would it be possible and cost efficient to purchase another matching loose diamond solitaire and have them both set into round stud earrings? Is this something a jeweler would be willing to do? If so, how much should I expect to spend for white gold, screwback settings and the labor? Thanks for your help and suggestions! :)

Will my gold/diamond ring be safe in the shower?

Religious Does Not = Christian! asked:


My wonderful boyfriend surprised me with a gorgeous betrothal ring (kind of an engagement ring jr.). It’s made of white gold and diamonds. I never take it off, except to cook with ground beef or to do clay crafts. He’s concerned that I might lose the diamonds in the shower. He thinks they may come loose and slip out. I know there are lots of women who never take off their wedding/engagement rings with diamonds in them. And I know that diamonds and gold are tough materials that can withstand a LOT. But this ring is the most precious object that I own, and I won’t take chances.

How many of you wear diamonds 24/7? Has anyone had one come loose?

It was made at Jared, if that’s an important detail.
No way did he get me a lower metal and claim it was gold! He’s a romantic. Besides, I’ve seen both the receipt (had to have it sized) and the mark on the band.

Thanks so much for your answers. I hope this puts his mind at ease.

When buying an engagement ring do you wait for your diamond to get set?

advice needed…. asked:


We bought a diamond from a different vendor than the person we got the engagement ring. When we’re getting the diamond set in the ring, do you wait for it to get done? Do you trust the jeweler to set your diamond in the right ring?

Engagement rings! Help with buying a diamond?

mrbeamer911 asked:


So, as with life, if you want something perfect you gotta be ready to pay an arm and a leg for it.

I am looking to buy my fiance a diamond solitaire engagement ring. Unfortunately since I left my job to move across the country I am on a bit of a budget.

The ideal ring that I want to buy is a 1.5 carat, VS1 or better, F or better color with an Prem cut. Unfortunately, those run in about the $15-17k range.

So, I need to “adjust” one if the 5 Cs to make it fit my budget of about $10-12k.

What should I sacrifice? Color? Clarity? Carat is out of the question since I want to keep it at 1.5.

So anyone have any opinions?

Fiance wants a dinky ring so for those of you who think she is greedy and stuck up….she is not. This is my choice.

lama0375 asked:


Hello, my g/f is a massage therapist and therfore cannot wear her engagement ring on her finger during work. I would like to buy her a necklace/chain to hold and protect the diamond ring during work. What type of metal would be best to protect against scratching? What type of metal and/or chain type would provide maximum strength so that the necklace would not easily break? Same goes for the clasp type, what clasp type would provide maximum security? Basically, I’m looking for the best possible necklace to protect loss/theft of this large investment, thank you!

Engagement rings need not always contain diamonds. Popular trends include using gemstones as sidestones as well as other precious stones.
