it all depand on what you want. a diamond ring can be broken down into the following 4 categories:
, ?! Z. Z; K0 @6 W
: d6 U* A+ \% Osize 6 {5 J* U9 f% t* T7 M3 {
colour+ Z2 V# S7 l4 @5 f: v% e! s5 e
clarity
5 L: v6 G6 i# ]/ Y" X. Pcut
+ p2 ~/ Y: [' q- i& F) Z
) d' B/ a! {- ~8 S# N( c/ D5 {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.

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.

) g9 S, }% i9 gthe 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)* H2 W. {8 ]+ ~( p3 b) @

the band (ring itself) can be found in white gold 14K or 18K. typically, the better the diamond, the better band it comes with. ie <$5000 ring usually comes with a 14K band but >$5000 ring will come with a 18K band.
