Ring Pricing Calculator
Designing your dream ring shouldn’t feel overwhelming or mysterious. Whether you’re just starting your search or comparing different options, our Ring Pricing Calculator helps you understand how differentstone and metal choicesaffect your budget.
This tool was created to help you visualize and prioritize what matters most—whether that’s the setting or the stone. Knowing your budget is key, if the size and type of stone is your top priority, you can easily adjust the size of the center stone within the tool to see how that affects price.
How the Price Estimate Works
We believe in clarity, not confusion. Here’s how we calculate your estimate:
Metal Prices:
- Based on current market values
– Platinum: $1600/oz
– Gold: $4000/oz - Average Metal Pricing: Pricing is based on a classic prong set solitaire with a refined 3mm shank—our signature balance of elegance and durability. Choosing a slimmer band can reduce the cost slightly, while a thicker shank adds visual weight and material value.
- Stone Choice: Your price will vary depending on the type, cut, and carat weight of the center stone. Select from salt and pepper diamonds, lab-grown diamonds, and sapphires.
Customization Fees:
- What to Expect Every love story is unique, and your ring should be too. We offer full customization options and fair pricing for custom work:
- Simple Solitaire Modifications (e.g., switching from prong to bezel, adding a halo, low profile to high profile):
→ $100-200 customization fee - In-Depth Custom Designs (e.g., unique head style, double band, hidden halo):
→ $500 custom design fee
We tailor the design process to meet your specific needs and budget.

Real-Life Example: What Does This Style Cost?
To help you estimate more confidently, here’s a visual example of a classic engagement ring baseline, featuring a round Montana purple sapphire in a six-prong solitaire setting with a substantial 3mm band.
Seen here:
- 3mm solid gold or platinum shank
- Six-prong solitaire setting
- Custom-made to fit the selected stone
- Durable, minimal, and timeless
Note: The sapphire shown in the below photos is a rare purple orange Montana sapphire, which is priced higher than the midrange sapphire used in our calculator. Unique hues such as parti, polychrome, and unique cuts like Starbrite© may increase the stone’s cost.
Pricing Notes:
- The metal price estimate is based on current market rates: $1,600/oz for platinum and $4,000/oz for gold.
- This ring style represents a common benchmark for solitaire engagement ring pricing on our site.
- If you love this look but want to adjust the design or material, we can work within a range of budgets.
Custom Work Options:
- Standard custom fee: $500 for in-depth design work (e.g. one-of-a-kind detailing)
- Simplified custom fee: $200 for small edits (e.g. swapping prongs for a bezel)
