Don’t let budget constraints limit your dreams of finding the perfect engagement ring.

All you need is a little creativity and savvy shopping tips!
1. Precious Stones, Your Way
While precious stones like diamonds, sapphires, rubies, and emeralds exude timeless elegance, you don’t need to sacrifice their brilliance to stay within budget. Smaller gemstones can create equally stunning $4,000 engagement rings with captivating designs that maintain a traditional aesthetic. And these investment-worthy engagement rings can also become heirlooms you pass down through generations.

2. Lab-Grown Stones: Big Shine, Small Price
Lab-grown gemstones offer an affordable alternative to mined precious stones. They are chemically and physically identical to their natural counterparts but come at a fraction of the price. This means you can get a great-quality larger stone while staying within your $4000 ring budget!

Why stick to the “Big 4”? Semi-precious gemstones offer vibrant colours and unique personalities. For engagement rings in a $4000 budget, the gemstone options are endless, making your ring selection even more fun!

4. Smart Setting Selection
Settings matter! Halo and clustre, luster settings enhance the centre stone without breaking the bank. A 4,000-dollar ring with a smaller centre stone and pavé-set stones can still be incredibly sparkly, for example.

5. Choose Clever ‘Cuts’
Selecting rings that have an oval or pear shape provides excellent options for those who want a larger-looking stone without increasing the carat weight and hence, the cost. These shapes draw the eye along the length of the stone, making it appear bigger than a round or square cut of the same carat. These shapes also provide more surface area for light to reflect, so your ring can shine brighter while maintaining the 4k engagement ring budget!
Pear & Oval Rings Under $4,000
If you want to design your engagement ring from scratch, we have Create With Angara as well! You can start by choosing the ring setting, selecting your preferred gemstone, its carat size, quality and metal—giving you full control of the entire engagement ring selection process.
Our rings also come with a Lifetime Warranty and an extended version which comes with repair and other maintenance and care options, so you don’t have to splurge on engagement ring insurance in case you decide to insure your ring.

So go ahead, get the ring of your dreams—we’ll take care of the rest.
