Rather unlikely, given the alarming cracks in DeBeers' monopoly and the non-cartel diamonds now pouring out of Russia, Canada and Australia, not to mention several companies that are now making synthetic diamonds indistinguishable from the real thing. I'd go for a ruby instead, but fortunately I'm not in the marketOriental wrote:Buy a stone from a diamond trader. The stone should be at least 1 carat, flawless, colourless and cut to perfection. A stone like that will most likely keep its value if you have bought it at plus/minus market price. You may even see the value of the stone increase over time.
I still think its only about love and as such measuring your affection by the size of your carat is purely superficial and will not lead to any real meaning. Sure, if you have lots of money buy that expensive ring but it does'nt really men anything and I would suggest if iut does mean something to your future wife you should think twice before givign her anything (including the time of day).Oriental wrote:You don’t say anything about your budget so assuming it’s not peanuts I’ll go ahead with my recommendation.

For a top quality diamond of 1+ carat be prepared to pay around S$20,000.
After you have bought the diamond you can have it fitted in a ring for your wife to be. White gold or platinum would be a good choice.
Most of the crap diamonds in the jewellery you find in jewellery stores are not worth even a fraction of the price they charge.
But on the other hand most women get high on diamonds regardless of the 4 C’s as long as it is given to them out of love.
