Unveiling the Price of an Engagement Ring

Pondering on the cost of an engagement ring? It used to be commonly advised that the ideal price for an engagement ring should be equivalent to two months’ salary. This well-known rule has its roots in the 1980s, originating from a popular campaign by diamond giant De Beers. Nowadays, in Belgium, one can secure a simple yet elegant ring for around €1000. However, the final price tag isn't a simple fixed number, it varies based on several factors. To illuminate the landscape of engagement ring prices, BAUNAT is here to guide you.  


Guidelines on Engagement Ring Prices

The pricing of engagement rings ranges from a minimum of around €900 to upwards of €50,000 depending on various factors. These price points encompass diverse engagement ring features such as the carat weight, choice of metal, presence of additional gemstones or side diamonds, level of customisation and the overall quality of the diamonds used.  

Pricing Factors of an Engagement Ring

To be precise, the price of an engagement ring hinges heavily on the choice of metals, precious stones, diamond cut and setting. The quality and carats of the diamonds play an equally determining role. All these elements each contribute to the overall price of the ring. However, when you choose BAUNAT, you're guaranteed not only high-quality diamonds but a personal service and meticulously handcrafted pieces from Antwerp.

Features Affecting Engagement Ring Price

Choosing the right engagement ring is a unique process, with preferences varying from person to person. Broadly speaking, when you're considering the price of your ring, keep the following factors in mind:

1. Precious Metal Decision:

Traditionally, yellow gold has been the favoured choice due to its classic, timeless appeal. However, BAUNAT presents you with a plethora of other options including white gold, platinum, and red gold – each adding their distinct charm and impact on the ring's price.

2. Diamond Size and Quality:

The size of a diamond is expressed in carats. Generally, the more carats, the higher the price of the engagement ring. Quality indicators, known as the 4Cs (Carat, Colour, Clarity, and Cut), should always be listed in your diamond's certificate and are aspects that determine the price too.

3. Diamond Cut and Colour:

The brilliance or sparkle of a diamond influences the engagement ring price. A diamond's cut and colour grade from D (Pure white) to Z significantly affect the eventual cost of your ring.

4. Diamond Setting:

The diamond setting style can also affect the final price. BAUNAT offers various settings such as cathedral, bezel, halo, and trilogy all handcrafted to perfection that cater to different budgets and style preferences.
