    Antique is probably the best way to go if you want a diamond that even approaches affordability and isn’t part of the modern blood diamond trade. I gave my wife my grandmother’s ring, so I didn’t have to buy one at all, but most people don’t have that sort of luck.

    Just glancing quickly, eBay looks like it has some pretty decent deals on those.
