Finer Things

Most Expensive Ring
By Staff Writer

If you're an aging bachelor and billionaire looking to wed someone half your age, you may want to look into expensive engagement rings. One such individual's proposal to an ex-model involved a $1.5 million engagement ring. That may seem way out there, but it's not even close to the most expensive ring in the world.

The Chopard Blue Diamond Ring is the ring that makes any other diamond ring look bad. Set with an enormous, oval-shaped blue diamond, the expensive ring also has diamond shoulders and an 18k white gold band paved with diamonds.

Blue diamond is among the most expensive diamonds in the world. It is found among boron deposits, from whence it derives its shade. This particular gem weighs in at nine carats.

The world's most expensive ring is valued at $16.26 million, enough to put a dent in the wallets of even the wealthiest individuals.

Most Expensive Diamond Necklaces
By Staff Writer

An expensive diamond necklace is more than a simple accessory. It's a statement of opulence that will set members of your family apart for generations. Check out some of the world's most expensive diamond necklaces.

H. Stern's Venus Necklace - $3.17 million

This 110-carat diamond necklace features a number of cushion, square and pear-cut diamonds set in 18k noble gold. Even the clasp is exquisite, featuring a 14-point diamond star. This is truly a piece that looks just as good from behind as it does from the front.
The De Beers' Marie-Antionette Necklace - $3.7 million

From the De Beers High-Jewellery collection, this luxurious necklace features over 181 carats of mixed cut diamonds. Beneath the deep pink diamond (1.84 carats) on the first string are two yellow diamonds (5.24 and 7.06) along the second and third strings. The 8.05 carat pear-shaped white diamond hanging from the fourth string, though, is the showstopper on this beautiful piece of jewelry.

Neil Lane's Diamond Necklace - $4 million

The 140 carats of diamonds featured on this valuable necklace feature three different cuts-pear, cushion and teardrop. The diamonds are set in platinum along the six strings that make up this necklace.

Garrard's Heart of the Kingdom Ruby - $14 million

The most expensive necklace in the world features a 40.63-carat, heart-shaped Burmese ruby surrounded by 155 carats of diamonds. Burmese ruby is one of the most sought after varieties of ruby due to its blood-red hue. This gem is particularly valuable due to its extraordinary size-Burmese rubies rarely exceed a few carats!

The most expensive necklace can also be worn as a tiara.
