Hi everyone,
I am new to pricescope and I want to thank everyone for creating such a warm atmosphere filled with passionate people that allows me to feel safe enough to post here. I'm just beginning my search for a ring that hopefully my GF will love. So far we've only been to the mall to look at chain vendors but as I've read here, it seems that there are many other options that with a bit of hard work, pay off immensely. I don't have a big budget, approximately $3500 (Canadian). And though I still don't understand all the abbreviations and language used here on the forum, I'll try my best to describe the particular styles she has been drawn to most.
She is quite petite and has small hands (ring size 4.5) so she is looking for something dainty but sturdy feeling on her hand. Her personal preference is a rounded square halo ring with either a cushion or round stone in the center. She prefers a lower setting with not too much height and if possible, to have tapered "pave" arms. She tried on halos with stones ranging from .5 to 1.0 cw but feels that anything over .75 cw feels too big (probably because of the halo).
I feel like that for her, she So far I've checked settings from James Allen, Blue Nile, Whiteflash and Gabriel & Co. but haven't quite found anything that fits the bill and the budget.
From the rings she's tried on in the mall, she liked this one the most from People's Jewellers:
The link for the ring can be found here: http://www.peoplesjewellers.com/product/index.jsp?productId=22419336
If possible, I would like to find something similar for her and in the same price range but with higher quality diamonds and craftsmanship.
Thanks in advance for any advice you may give and I look forward to hearing what you have to say!
