Why These Diamond Engagement Rings Cost Less

Our ready-to-ship collection has been designed differently from a fully custom engagement ring.

Instead of creating an individual CAD design and manufacturing each ring after an order is placed, we concentrate on one classic solitaire setting, two solid 9kt gold colours and three popular diamond sizes: 0.30ct, 0.50ct and 1.00ct.

Producing these rings efficiently and holding finished stock allows us to reduce the price while retaining the materials, workmanship and diamond quality assurances expected from Polished Diamonds.

If you would prefer to personalise the design, diamond shape, precious metal or setting, explore our custom diamond rings and solitaire diamond rings.

Which Diamond Size Should I Choose?

0.30 Carat Diamond Engagement Ring

A 0.30ct diamond creates an elegant, understated solitaire and represents the lowest-priced option in this collection. It is ideal where budget and classic design are more important than maximum diamond size.

0.50 Carat Diamond Engagement Ring

A half-carat diamond provides a noticeable increase in face-up size while retaining excellent value. For many buyers, the 0.50ct option provides the strongest balance between diamond presence and price.

1 Carat Diamond Engagement Ring

A one-carat diamond is one of the most recognised engagement-ring sizes. It provides substantially more visual presence while our fixed-design, ready-to-ship format helps keep the price highly competitive.

For more information about how carat weight affects diamond size, read our diamond carat guide or explore our round brilliant diamond rings.

Affordable Engagement Rings Without Giving Up Quality

When comparing affordable or low-priced diamond engagement rings, look beyond the advertised price.

Consider whether the ring uses solid precious metal, the type and quality of the diamond, whether certification is provided, whether the ring is genuinely held in stock, and what after-sales service is available.

Polished Diamonds’ ready-to-ship collection combines a high-quality lab diamond, solid 9kt gold, transparent pricing and ongoing support from an established New Zealand jewellery company with its own NZ workshop.
