GUIDE · PRICES
How much does an engagement ring cost in Switzerland?
An engagement ring can cost from just over a thousand francs to many tens of thousands: what decides the price is above all the diamond and the metal.
In this guide we explain what matters, with the real prices of our rings, made by hand in our atelier in Balerna, Ticino.
THE DIAMOND
Carat, cut, colour and clarity
The price of a diamond depends on four qualities that GIA calls the 4Cs: carat weight, cut, colour and clarity. Carat weight is what moves the price the most.
Then there is the origin: a laboratory-grown diamond costs much less than a natural diamond of the same weight. With us, a 0.50 ct solitaire starts at CHF 1’790 with a lab-grown diamond and at CHF 3’590 with a natural diamond.

18 carat gold or platinum
Our rings are made in 18 kt gold (750/1000), white, yellow or rose; some models also in platinum. The metal affects the price less than the diamond, but it changes the colour and the weight of the ring.
In the atelier we show you the models and the metals side by side.

PRICES
How much does an engagement ring cost with you?
Our solitaires start at CHF 1’790 with a 0.50 ct lab-grown diamond and at CHF 3’590 with a natural diamond. The final price depends on carat, cut, colour, clarity and metal.
Why does a lab-grown diamond cost less?
Because it grows in a laboratory in a few weeks, instead of over billions of years underground. It is a real diamond, but easier to produce.
Is the diamond certified?
Yes, with a GIA or IGI certificate.
CHOOSING
How much should I spend?
There is no rule. Tell us your budget: we show you what can be done with it.
More carats or more quality?
It depends on what you notice more. In the atelier we put different diamonds under the microscope, so you choose with your own eyes.
Can I see the ring before buying it?
Yes: some models are ready in the atelier, the others you see in 3D while trying on sample sizes.
WHERE
Where can I see the rings?
In the atelier in Balerna, Monday to Friday (Saturday on request), or in the boutique in Locarno, Wednesday to Saturday, from 9 am to 3 pm. Always by appointment.
