George Clooney & Amal Alamuddin Engagement Ring

It contains a flawless stone of seven superb carats, maybe a tad more. That's the diamond engagement ring on which George Clooney spent almost half a million pounds. Mr. Clooney assisted the jewelers in designing the ring. Its exquisite, ethically mined, emerald-cut diamond fairly glistens with sublime brilliance. In addition to the magnificence of the large stone, the ring contains two cheeky baguettes, which are smaller stones that both flank and accent the main stone. Baguette diamonds usually have 14 facets, whereas emerald-cut stones have between 50 and 58 facets. 

Both are less fiery than princess or round-cut diamonds but present a dignified appearance without ostentation. The stones are set in a simple platinum band that is decorated with elegant grooves. British customs inspectors weren't impressed or starstruck, however, back in May when Clooney's bride, Amal Alamuddin, strolled through Heathrow Airport wearing the ring. The couple will likely owe 100,000 pounds in duty because the stone came from outside the European Union!

Such things must be far from their minds, however, as they both descended on Venice on September 25, 2014 in preparation for their wedding. He looked sharp and dapper in a gray suit, and she was gorgeous in tasteful, black-and-white, horizontal stripes. Once in Venice, they boarded a water taxi that was appropriately named "Amore." Joining them were supermodel Cindy Crawford and her husband, Rande Gerber.

Festivities took place at the Hotel Cipriani on the island of Giudecca. Friday's reception and Monday's wedding include guests such as Matt Damon, Sandra Bullock and Ellen Barkin. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie also attended, as has Cate Blanchett. All of the guests had waterborne police escorts to keep the ravenous paparazzi away from their water taxis. Mr. Clooney is said to have granted exclusive photography rights to American Vogue in exchange for a substantial donation to a charity he selected.

As expected, security personnel have been extremely diligent, and staff members attending to the wedding celebration and ceremony were issued microchips and required to sign confidentiality agreements. Rumors had abounded for months because Mr. Clooney is a regular at the renowned Venice Film Festival, and the happy couple didn't disappoint the Italian city of 118 islands that dates to the middle of the fifth century.

How much should I spend on an engagement ring?

Our culture dictates that to measure the love of a man is to gauge the size of the diamond he has for his girl. Wrong! Buying for a diamond engagement ring should be pure, fulfilling, joyful and practical, and NOT strenuous! You must consider the long term effect in purchasing an engagement ring because both of your future is at stake.  There are more significant elements that need to be considered like wedding, honeymoon and life after the wedding, where your savings or credit cards will surely be tried and tested.

Don't ever allow anyone tell you what to spend!

The fifth C is as important as the 4C's - the Cost. The amount involved in getting an engagement ring is very personal. The old tradition goes that it takes two to three months' salary on a diamond engagement ring.  But let the depth of your love and not the depths of your pocket influence your purchase. Do not let this tradition affect on how much you should spend. It must entirely be up to and your fiancée.

Three months' salary is obsolete.....

We are now facing an increasing cost of living, graduating from college with more student loans, low entry level salaries at work, and many more challenging changes in our economy. Setting aside 3 months' salary for an engagement ring is a big chunk of money, and you sacrifice all other reasons that are more significant in getting engaged.

Should you apply for loan to afford an engagement ring?

As you get married everything becomes conjugal and that includes debt. Do not give your wife a temporary happiness with a big diamond but a long term agony in paying a huge credit card bill. Nowadays, it is but normal to be indebted before marrying. There may be forms of financial obligations such as student loan, home mortgage, etc. that we need to fulfill for years. If debt-free is impossible at least to be less indebted is better as you enter into marriage.

If you plan to finance the diamond ring either through line of credit or credit card, assess your financial capacity first.  If you wish to propose sooner but have no available cash, borrowing a reasonable amount at quickest payment term like 12 months or less is fine.

How much should an engagement ring cost?

If you will base the price of an engagement at other people's expectation then it will be very costly. It must be done this way --- whatever you think is realistic for you to afford, then, that it the right cost. Finding a credible and trusted jeweler also matters a lot. Some jewelers would stretch your spending limit merely to sell the big stone. Others would offer you a diamond at a cheaper price but very low quality. A good and honest jeweler would ask for your budget and maximize it for the best possible quality stone; the same business approach that we practice to our customers for our main goal is total customer satisfaction.

How to find the best deal for a diamond engagement ring?

Searching online and visiting jewelry stores will help you compare and identify quality diamonds with better prices. But you should be aware of the kind of pricing they offer. Finding a diamond dealer in Los Angeles that offers diamonds at a wholesale price would definitely save you a lot of money. Other stores tend to convert its price into triple key. But when buying from a wholesaler you automatically cut the portion of the middleman and the retail store maximizing now your budget towards the best quality diamond.

Best Suggestion? 

After making your research, plan to visit Downtown Los Angeles Jewelry District with over 5,000 independent diamond and jewelry dealers having the best wholesale prices and highest quality certified diamonds. Avoid getting overwhelmed, begin with reputable wholesale companies and you will see how competitive their prices are as compared with retail stores. Be sure to check the company's reviews not on the quantity (number of reviews) but on the quality (rate of reviews). Coming prepared and equipped will help you become wise and practical shopper.

The difference between Wholesale and Retail Price of Loose Diamonds

Nowadays, consumers are looking for great deals such as 50% OFF, Buy 1 Get 1 Free or even $100 OFF if you purchase a minimum of… etc.  Some buyers prefer going online as one method of shopping; others are willing to explore the benefits of window shopping and searching for better deals for loose diamonds and diamond engagement rings.  But these 2 questions still remain: what is the difference between wholesale and retail price of loose diamonds and engagement rings; and what could the public benefit on the today’s market?

Buying from a Diamond Wholesaler

Wholesale price is known as sale of goods in large quantities for eventual resale.  However in diamond and jewelry business, wholesale price refers to as buying the diamonds or jewelries not necessarily in multiple quantities but at a much lesser price compare to the retail price.  In some cases, wholesalers provide the same amount of services like the retailers and a consumer buys a diamond or jewelry for a cheaper price than the retail price.  Diamond wholesalers often offer trade-ins where you can exchange your old loose diamond or diamond ring and upgrade it to a better and higher value.  Additional payment maybe required if the value of the diamond or diamond ring that you have is lower than the price of the diamond or diamond ring that you want to get.

Buying from a Diamond Retailer

This is perfect for people who prefer going to shopping malls or some local jewelry stores to buy loose diamonds or engagement rings.  Be aware that most retailers put 50-100% mark-up from the wholesale price.  This is actually great if you care only about the quality of the diamond and the engagement ring and price doesn't matter.  Most retailers are known for their commercial ads on televisions or radios that attract people to consider them as their first option.  Generally speaking, retailers always include tax on every transaction they make and usually promote a high value of services such as professional customer service, legitimate return and exchange policies, flexible payment methods such as credit cards, deposits, layaways, including warranties and insurance in their services.

Wholesale Price versus Retail Price

Even though consumers at present are looking for great deals in the market, loose diamond or diamond engagement rings, they still want to get the best quality at the best price.  Buyers are now smarter than 30 years ago in terms of shopping loose diamond and engagement rings because retailer’s mark up are so high that you can actually buy another set of diamond ring from a wholesaler.  Consumer experts says that its 50/50 of people are now likely to spend cash to buy loose diamond or engagement ring in a wholesale store rather than going to retail store to buy same item with tax included.  The important rule of a consumer is being wise in terms of buying loose diamonds or engagement rings.  To get a good deal, try to make a research and also identify your priorities in buying a diamond.
