What it's worth
Smaller rings bring several hundred to a couple thousand dollars, while certified larger-carat solitaires and fine designer and Art Deco rings reach the thousands to tens of thousands. The center stone, certification, and maker drive value.
Overview & history
Diamond engagement and anniversary rings range from modest solitaires to important platinum-and-diamond pieces and Art Deco designs. Value is driven primarily by the center diamond's four Cs and certification, plus the metal, the setting, any signed maker, and condition. Selling at auction reaches both retail buyers and the trade, often achieving strong results for fine and certified rings.
