Hi there

I am new to the forum and have recently been looking on online sites and trying to design my engagement ring. I would like something like this:
http://www.tiffany.ie/Engagement/Item.aspx?GroupSKU=GRP10024#f+4/0/0/0/0/0

or like this:
http://www.dreamstone.com/store/pc/dreamdesignbasket.asp?dd=1

I would just like to know some good websites that will help me design the ring I am looking for. I will not be buying a ring as expensive as the tiffanys one! My budget is around $4500. Any help and info would be great!!
 
The second link doesn't work for me but I get the idea that you are looking for a 3 stone ring, a MRB center with pear sidestones. Will it be in white gold or platinum? I'm trying to reverse calculate how much the setting will cost, then drill down to the side stones and center round diamond. Your $4500 budget is for the entire ring?
 
I'll tell you, I don't think a round with pear side stones is going to look right with a budget of $4500. Look at the Tiffany picture that has a 1 ct. weight. Yours would have to be much smaller to make the budget work. If a setting in 14k white gold was $1000 (if you could find one for that), then that would be $3500 for three diamonds. So you might be looking at a .60-.70 ct. center with .20 sides. Unless you have very tiny fingers, that will not have the same look as the large ring you were looking at.

Here is a Brian Gavin setting with the .20 pears already included. It is $2180 and is probably pictured with at least a 1 ct center stone. I think it is beautiful, but you'd have to call and ask them how small a center stone could work.

I would be thinking of white gold! I have a few ideas in mind, some that do not have pear side stones, but definately a ring with side stones of some sort, thats the style i like! I am happy enough with the centre stone being closer to half a carat if it is to fit in with the side stones. I came to this forum as I am not used to looking at diamonds and so I need guidance! HA! So far the feedback is great, thank you!! I also quite like this ring:

But as far as I have researched it doesnt seem to be that great in quality? Would I be right in presuming that?
