A Diamond Worth Millions
According to DailyMail, Selena’s engagement ring could be valued at over $1 million. Jewelry expert Laura Taylor of Lorel Diamonds shed light on the ring’s unique and timeless design.
“Benny’s choice of engagement ring for Selena is an exquisite and timeless design, perfectly suited to her style. The ring features an incredible marquise-cut diamond at its centre, estimated to be around 8 carats, set on a yellow gold pavé band,” Taylor shared.
The Charm of a Marquise-Cut Diamond
Taylor elaborated on the choice of the marquise cut, saying, “The marquise cut, with its elongated and pointed shape, is a statement choice, known for its brilliance and the way it elongates the finger, creating a striking and elegant look.”
Steeped in history, the marquise cut dates back to the 18th century when King Louis XV of France commissioned the design to resemble the smile of his mistress, the Marquise de Pompadour. Today, it remains a symbol of love and sophistication.
Expert’s Take on the Ring’s Craftsmanship
Discussing the details, Taylor added, “This setting maximises the brilliance of the overall design while maintaining a sense of sophistication. The central diamond is likely of exceptional quality, with VVS1 clarity and colourless grading in the D-F range. I would estimate the ring to be worth upwards of £800,000 ($1 million), depending on the precise diamond specifications.”
Selena’s engagement ring is not just a testament to her love story but also a timeless masterpiece, cementing its place as one of the most talked-about celebrity jewels of the year. Fans eagerly await what’s next for the happy couple.
