it all depand on what you want. a diamond ring can be broken down into the following 4 categories:
/ ~/ {( X# f( m1 p4 |' M- c6 e& `
size
! H7 J6 t* l4 j/ f0 [9 ]; H) gcolour
: o9 G" [" D. |4 ^3 p3 P5 `clarity
4 w5 n# z1 z0 Scut
4 e- }2 f2 ]: {8 N9 w3 H+ }) H+ m9 l
if you want a very high clarity and colour, then $10K CAD may only get you a 0.5 ct diamond if you don't care as much about colour and clarity, then you can easily get a 1.0 ct or bigger ring. typically, girls care more about the clarity and size. ; t/ ^/ C2 I$ v6 _/ j) B. c4 F

the cutting of the diamond is also very important. a well cut 0.5 ct diamond may look as big or maybe even bigger on surface than a 1.0 ct diamond if it wasn't cut properly.

: y& G; m, _+ t7 c7 ethe solitary princess diamond is the most popular style for an engagement ring. solitaty means a single large diamond (not a whole bunch of small diamonds or dusts but with the total weight added to a 1.0 ct) and princess means it's cut into a round shape on top (not square or oval shape)

5 a" d* s9 ^: Dthe band (ring itself) can be found in white gold 14K or 18K. typically, the better the diamond, the better band it comes with. ie <$5000 ring usually comes with a 14K band but >$5000 ring will come with a 18K band.
