How Much Is A Diamond Engagement Ring Worth?

Diamond engagement rings do not have one set price. Much like selling a car or a house, there are multiple factors that determine an engagement ring’s worth.

• The quality of the largest stone: The bulk of the value of your ring comes from the largest diamond. The quality of the center stone is determined largely by the 4C’s. These are the globally accepted diamond grading criteria, established by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). These grades detail the characteristics of your diamond: carat weight, color grade, clarity grade and cut grade.

• Setting: The setting adds some value to your diamond engagement ring. You will also need to know the basics about your diamond engagement ring’s setting.

• Certification: Your diamond engagement ring likely came with paperwork when purchased, detailing the diamond’s characteristics.
  • Type: Diamond certificates vary by type, but the GIA is considered the most accurate and detailed.
  • What They Do: This contains a wealth of information including your diamond’s 4 C’s, polish, fluorescence and much more.
  • Why It Matters: Having certification, specifically a GIA certificate, will help you during the selling process. It illustrates the quality of your diamond to potential buyers.

• Brand: Designer brands, such as Tiffany & Co., Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels, retain good value on the second-hand market. Selling a designer engagement ring with its branded box and papers will further increase its value.

What If I Am Not Sure That My Diamond Is Real?

If you were gifted the ring or inherited it, you may have wondered if the diamond was real. There are plenty of diamond simulants on the market that can look like the real thing. For example, moissanite and cubic zirconia. There are several tests that you can do at home to help tell you if you have a real diamond.

Home Tests:

• Glass Test: Lightly wet the table of your diamond and place that end against glass. Real diamonds will adhere to the glass and fakes will fall.
• Read Through Test: Place the diamond table down on a newspaper or book. If you can read the text, then your stone is not likely a diamond.
• Fog Test: Breathe onto the diamond like you are trying to fog up a window. If the fog clears up after one or two seconds, then your diamond is likely a real diamond.

While these tests can be a great starting point, the best way is to have it evaluated by an expert.
