What Does a $5,000 Engagement Ring Look Like?

5000 engagement ring

In 2006, $5,200 was the average amount spent on an engagement ring. With the downturn in the economy, the average ring price dropped, but now 8 years later budgets are once again inching up to where they once were. Is $5,000 your engagement ring budget? If so, you’re probably itching to see what other’s have gotten for their money at this price point.

Have you visited the Blue Nile Recently Purchased engagement ring page lately? It is one of my favorite places to browse real engagement ring pictures and see exactly how a ring stacks up – literally. If you’re lucky enough to have a $5,000 budget, you’ve got lots of options to create a gorgeous ring of any style. For inspiration, take a look at some beautiful rings customized for under $5,000 on the Blue Nile, below.
