What should I do with my old engagement ring?

THE ANSWER

You have plenty of options. Have the stones reset into a new piece. A pendant, earrings, or a right-hand ring. The diamond keeps its sentimental value in a fresh design. You can pass it down to a child or grandchild as is. Many families treasure inherited rings. You can sell it. Expect to get less than you paid. Resale on diamond jewellery runs around 20 to 50 percent of retail. You can donate it. Some charities accept fine jewellery. You can keep it in a safe as a memory. There is no wrong answer. It is your ring and your story.
