Affordable Engagement Rings: Capturing the Essence of Love Without Breaking the Bank

Love shouldn't come with a hefty price tag, and luckily, it doesn't have to! With a little bit of planning and Laatukoru's versatile selection of budget-friendly engagement rings, you can find a stunning ring that reflects your love and commitment without breaking the bank.

Whether you're a traditionalist or want something unique, this blog has got you covered. Say "I do" without worrying about overspending with these affordable engagement ring options.

How To Select Affordable Engagement Rings

When looking for affordable engagement rings, consider lab created diamond rings or alternative gemstones like moissanite, emerald, or sapphire. They offer a distinct look at a lower cost than traditional diamonds.

To ensure a high-quality and budget-friendly ring, choose reputable jewelers offering sterling silver with high micron plating in rhodium or rose gold. This ensures extra shine and durability.

Look for ethical and eco-friendly options made with ethically sourced metals and diamond alternatives to reduce overall costs.

By focusing on craftsmanship, material quality, and ethical sourcing, it's possible to find an affordable engagement ring that matches your style and sustainability goals. It's also good to remember that the fewer middlemen in the sale of a ring, the lower the price can be. A ring bought directly from the manufacturer can be cheaper than a ring bought through a retailer.

Our Top Picks for Affordable Engagement Rings

Lab-Created Diamond Rings

Lab-created diamonds have several benefits over traditional diamonds for engagement rings. They have similar properties and appearance to diamonds but cost much less.

Another benefit is that lab-created diamonds are environmentally friendly and do not contribute to conflict mining. They offer a combination of affordability and durability compared to other natural and affordable alternatives, such as moissanite and colored gemstones like sapphires and rubies.

When considering a lab-created diamond for an engagement ring, it's important to consider the 4 C's: carat, cut, clarity, and color to ensure the quality of the diamond. Quality lab-created diamonds should ideally have an "excellent cut" classification and a clarity and color rating that does not sacrifice the overall look. There are various modern cuts you can find in lab-created diamonds including opal cut, cushion cut and princess cut.

Our lab-created diamond rings range from 500 euros to 3000 euros, and are available in a variety of mixed metals to provide you with the best ring suited no only for your partner but for your budget too.

Gemstones with a Pop of Colour

Couples looking for an affordable yet colourful engagement ring have a variety of gemstones to consider.

• Sapphires are known for their stunning shades of blue and other vibrant hues, offering a vibrant splash of colour without the high price tag of a diamond.
• Rubies, with their deep red tones, provide another bold and striking choice for those seeking a pop of colour in their ring.
• For those looking for lighter, softer tones, morganite and aquamarine gemstones offer peachy-pink and pale blue hues, respectively, for an ethereal and romantic touch to an engagement ring design.
• Couples can also opt for coloured gemstone accents, such as amethyst or citrine, to create a unique and budget-friendly engagement ring.

With these more affordable gemstone alternatives, couples can craft a personalised and distinctive ring that reflects their style without compromising quality or durability.

Alternative materials

If you are willing to compromise on the material, the price point of the rings will drop significantly. Instead of gold, we offer a wide range of rings in materials such as zirconium, silver and titanium. Alternatives to gold are ideal for couples looking for an affordable engagement ring without compromising on quality.

Artisan Engagement Rings

By buying directly from the manufacturer rather than from a retailer, means that the prices can be kept low. Laatukoru's own Silván brand rings are made in Finland in a workshop in the city of Hyvinkaa, which means that prices can be kept low without compromising quality.

Silván jewelries are made from 100% ecological recycled gold. We use only the best materials: 14 or 18 carat white, yellow and rose gold, platinum and high-quality diamonds. With hundreds of rings to choose from, we have a wedding ring to suit your style. On average, Silván rings start from 150 euros and average price varies between 500 to 3000 euros per ring.

What To Remember?

The most important factor is your love and commitment. Choose a ring that reflects your unique story and expresses your heartfelt emotions. Prioritize quality and craftsmanship over carat size. A well-made ring with a smaller stone can be more beautiful and durable than a larger one with poor craftsmanship. We offer a lifetime warranty for our Silván rings so we can be 100% sure about the quality of our craftmanship.
