While you can get affordable diamond options that are beautiful and elegant below 2000 dollars, it is better not to have unrealistic expectations such as purchasing a one-carat diamond ring with this budget.       Below is a good strategy to shop for a 2000 dollar diamond ring, in a logical and smart way.
  • Firstly, decide on a center stone shape and the type of ring setting you want. Many diamond cuts exist, including round, cushion, and princess cuts, to name the most popular ones.
  • Depending upon the choice of ring setting, you can work out the balance of the budget for its centerpiece gemstone. For instance, if you fancy a solitaire design that costs around $400, it leaves you with around $1,600 for the center gem. In case you want a fancier setting such as pave that costs around $750, it leaves you with $1,250 for the centerpiece gem.
  • Once you settle on the ring setting, it helps you to narrow down your diamond options. Then, decide on the color and clarity of the gem.
          It is recommended to look for a diamond with G or H color grade and VS2 or SI1 clarity grade and the biggest carat weight that you can afford.
