At half a carat, the centre diamond provides noticeably more presence than a 0.30ct diamond while keeping the complete ring price below $1,500.

Why Choose a 0.50ct Diamond Engagement Ring?
A half-carat diamond is a popular choice for buyers who want a noticeable centre diamond without moving to the price of a one-carat ring.
Carat measures diamond weight rather than its exact visible diameter, so cut and proportions are also important when comparing diamonds. A well-cut round brilliant is designed to return light efficiently and create strong brightness, fire and scintillation.

Why Is This Diamond Engagement Ring Such Good Value?
Polished Diamonds created the Ready-to-Ship collection for customers looking for a quality diamond engagement ring at a competitive and transparent price.
Rather than individually redesigning every ring after an order is placed, we concentrate on one proven solitaire engagement-ring design, selected diamond sizes and solid 9kt gold.
Producing these rings efficiently and holding completed stock reduces manufacturing time and cost.
You still receive a genuine lab-grown diamond, solid gold setting, independent IGI grading and ongoing support from Polished Diamonds. If you would like to understand more about diamond origin and value, read our guide to lab-grown diamonds.

Is $1,290 the complete engagement ring price?
Yes. $1,290 is the complete ring price, including the 0.50ct lab-grown diamond and solid 9kt gold engagement-ring setting. There is no separate centre-diamond purchase required.
