it all depand on what you want. a diamond ring can be broken down into the following 4 categories:
& o- [5 s+ u X+ o& b- A4 v; A2 d2 x
size % |' p; q5 s: |& I

cut
: A+ }+ O0 @8 ?. Q/ ^: N, B9 a; q, H
if you want a very high clarity and colour, then $10K CAD may only get you a 0.5 ct diamond if you don't care as much about colour and clarity, then you can easily get a 1.0 ct or bigger ring. typically, girls care more about the clarity and size. % N/ s2 K' @. t7 X2 J* Z; ^/ m

the cutting of the diamond is also very important. a well cut 0.5 ct diamond may look as big or maybe even bigger on surface than a 1.0 ct diamond if it wasn't cut properly.

the solitary princess diamond is the most popular style for an engagement ring. solitaty means a single large diamond (not a whole bunch of small diamonds or dusts but with the total weight added to a 1.0 ct) and princess means it's cut into a round shape on top (not square or oval shape)
