Proposal Ring - Part 3

[Mooxie]

Anyone can share the estimated price of JannPaul’s wedding bands? Bought from them the engagement ring previously.

What designs are you looking for?

She is looking for something like this.

For mine I really have no preference, just feel that it would be good to match hers. Any recommendation on what kind of design a guy should get?

Saw this on their fb page and I really like it, however 2 considerations:

1. Her engagement ring is white gold, not sure if it matches

2. Friends tell me rose gold does not age well. It will only look good for the first year

This is a standard eternity ring, now what's affecting the pricing will be does she want half eternity, 3/4 or full eternity.

The picture one is with super tiny melees, probably 0.01, as i mentioned before, price changes based on the number of diamonds and the size of the diamonds on the ring hence can't really give estimate one unless you already know exactly what u want.

Also as for men's band, it depends on how thick it is, it can range anywhere from 500 to even 1.5k+ if you chose super big and thick design, more gold used = more expensive. If you're going for simple plain ones should be below 1k for men for sure.

Think will look weird with 2 different color of whole ring on the finger, u can always get JP to do this in white gold with the middle white enamel for you to see...it's free anyway to see in 3D haha.

As for aging wise between WG/RS, it depends on individual, rose gold contains higher copper alloy hence it will 'darken/warmer/redder' over time, but not significantly much, IMO it might look slightly better when it gets warmer haha...as for white gold, it will turn yellowish over time as the rhodium plating starts to wear off. either way, both WG or RS, u can send for polishing/re-plating years down to road to get back the brand-new looks anyway, i believe JP does provide free once or twice polish/re-plating if im not wrong.

Take G color and VS2 in order to bump up the carat size to what your budget allows.

Hi Guys, I will be proposing overseas!

Any tips or things I should be aware of? I hope alarm bells dont start ringing when I go through customs. Dont want to have to propose to her at the security gate.

To update: Great success guys!

Smaller diamonds pick up less color.
At those past prices, you could definitely go for a F/G with a VS clarity, and get a bigger caret

Thanks people so many information to digest haha. I know nuts about this.

If you have time, there’s a lot of diamond blogs to read up.
Like beyond4cs by Paul and niceice by Todd Gray among others
If no time, you can always head down to JP for no obligation education

I thought u decided already ... having second thoughts? Lol
I doubt includes ring .. it’s about $500+ plain setting if u get from JP

 

[KinoChoco]

for 2.5 - 3k budget i'll suggest ideal cut tier from JP/HOH is enough...spend the rest of the money to up carat.

Personally feel that an ideal bigger size beats super ideal hands down if the carat is below 0.5.

The increased size will be more worth it than having a cut that's maybe only gonna shine 5-10% more based on your current budget

 

[nee soon]

hi guys, do we need to make appt before heading down to JP?

 

[lance88]

no second thoughts. and yes i also doubt includes ring, without ring that prices should be SIC

aiya 1 life time also not buy 1 ring only what.
