If you're looking for the biggest carat size you can for your money, then your best bets are H.Samuel, Warren James, Argos or somewhere similar. The quality (colour and clarity) will be poorer, but with diamonds you get what you pay for.

�375 at Ernest Jones will get you something like this (0.15 carat)...

�359.99 at Argos will get you something like this (⅓ carat)...

go to an antique shop - you will get much more diamond for your money and if you can't get white gold, you can get the shank changed to white gold very cheaply

I got mine from H Samuels and we paid �300 and it's exactly as you described

travel to Birmingham and visit the jewellery quarter, masses of diamond shops, real deals to be had, you can barter too! Great fun and the diamonds WOW!!!

good luck.

check out fine art auctions. you'll get far far more for your money . you'll often pay a quarter of the price you'll pay for a new ring so by paying �300 you might get a ring worth �1200 or much more. although you may need a few months to browse catalogues and bid at auctions until you get what you need. please also bear in mind that the auction house will charge you commission on top of the price you pay.

Try going finding one on Ebay. You can find a lot of great deals for used diamond rings that are in great shape. Just an idea. Have you ever thought about designing your own? I love custom jewellery and it doesn't have to be very expensive either.
