Great details on those thanks looking for diamonds.
Some are so beautiful, and others..well I think PS'ers have the best rings of all!

I wonder how the magazine determined the values of those rings? I'm sure the stores and the present owners didn't divulge any figures.

 

[fancyrock]

More

please....

 

[Allie_oops]

I always wondered how they figured out the value too.
But I like looking at the pretty pictures more than I care about the $$ part.

 

[MissAva]

My first thought was why cant Mealina Trump find a color other then baby poop brown to paint her nails, they look disgusting...bleh!

Not a great shot of the ring either. My fav is Heidi Klums...but that could be cuase she and her hubby are just soo cute together and becuase they named their child something human sounding (Henry).

I just wanted to add something about the prices.

Did you know that celebs get a 75% discount on jewelry - such as e-rings?
So the prices that you see are not a reflection of what such an item would actually cost, or did cost.
Most of these companies consider it exposure and advertising, and well worth the expense.

I wanna be a celeb.

Man just think of the ring you could get for your budget!

Scintillating....

Oh* I agree with y''all about Melania''s polish. That was one of my first thoughts. Ew!

 

[looking4carats]

LOL . you guys are to funy!!!! i found this one also it''s another shot of the trump ring. i''ll post more if i find from the others.
I have a few fav!!!

 

[lilyinct]

[Tacori E-ring]

It is not that hard to figure out how much would cost to have something like that. In some cases the origin or design signature is difficult to evaluate but carats are not, after all.

I wouldn't know to add to this list, but somehow this fits the bill - a wannabe star, don't you think ? Compared to it's bargain basement cousin.

 

[Allie_oops]

I figured pricescopers wouldn''t have an issue figuring out the value, but I wasn''t giving the trash magazines much credit for that.

Half the time they can''t get the cuts straight.

 

[bichon]

The papers say that Melania's ring is a flawless D coloured emerald. Is it or me, or does the stone look kind of yellow? I've seen some pretty white J's and K's on Pricescope. Of course, it could be the stone absorbing the warm hues of the room ...

 

[madrock]

Yes, it looked pretty yellow to me too. And there''s no way a 12-carat D flawless EC would sell for $480,000 -- or even a million. It would be more.

 

[z78gml]

Looking4carats thanks for posting all those beautiful pictures and details.

I was at a newstand the other day and I glanced over a Glamour magazine(????) with Jennifer Lopez on the cover. It's the one with Jennifer wearing this beautiful gold and white dress. You can only see her ring on the cover. It looked bigger than Paris Hilton's e-ring. From what I can see it's a giant emerarld with trapazoids on each sides with a paved lined band. Does anybody have any close up pictures of this ring?

 

[lmurden]

Melanie''s diamond color looks horrible and so do her yuk nails.

 

[lmurden]

Nicole Richie''s is my favorite it''s so delicate yet substantial.

 

[flutterby]

I have to agree I love Nicoles ring. A close up of it would be great. I have seen closeups of the new one, but not the pink one and that is by far my favorite ring!

 

[mrssalvo]

yep, she was on oprah and said it was a 6 carat cushion..

 

[Bev]

Sheryl Crow''s ring is gorgeous!!!!! 6 Carat Cushion in a split shank pave setting. Kind of looks like a Daniel K.

 

[blueroses]

So I just got my new In Style in the mail and it''s another wedding issue. I have to say, they have NOTHING on us!!!! Their little spread on rings was really disappointing....on certain rings (like Heidi Klum''s yummy FY Oval/cushion) they had a totally different stone shape on their "example" shots. I know it''s never the same shot, but they weren''t even close--For hers they had a radiant that looked vastly different. Anyway, I know your average person isn''t batsh*tcrazy like we are. But I need ACCURATE bling!! I''ll have to scan it later. So sad (or at least predictable) how many of these engagements are already over (Richie, Hilton, Sheridan....)

 

[CareBear]

some of these numbers are off reported by magazines are off. Initially I read Nicole''s pink sapphire ring was 10k, then I saw on tv that it was 95k. Now that''s a big price difference! But I guess it doesn''t matter since the wedding is off=P
