3 months? Good God!

through my experience of designing a ring and getting it made
for a reasonable cost (worked out about half a months wage in the end) I discovered how much of that cost was materials, which was quite a lot of it. Given that the craftsmanship was excellent and such, I can only conclude that really expensive rings are either A)covered in far more or larger stones than taste would allow me to buy B)made of some incredibly rare metal that is outrageously expensive, of C)extortionately marked up

1 Month? 3 Months?
Have you noticed that the people telling you how many months' salary to spend are... the diamond industry?!?

Personally I can't see the fuss over what is, or might as well be, a bit of sparkly glass.

Bollocks to all this!
My mate Nelson knows a lovely tall black bird from sarf London who'll fit you up a goodun' with some stones. Keeps funny hours mind.

Failing that, there's always Lizzy Duke.
