Expert Advice
Smart Buying Tips for a €2,000 Budget
01
Prioritise Cut Above Everything Else
An excellent cut diamond will always outperform a higher carat weight with a mediocre cut. At €2,000, cut quality is your most important decision — do not sacrifice sparkle for a slightly bigger stone.
02
Look just below the 0.50 carat mark
A 0.70–0.74ct diamond is visually indistinguishable from 0.75ct on the finger, but can cost 10–15% less. This frees up €100–€150 for a better setting or a step up in colour.
03
Consider an oval or pear shape
Elongated shapes appear 10–15% larger than a round diamond of the same carat weight, while typically costing 15–20% less. This means you could get a 0.90ct oval for the same price as a 0.75ct round. Explore all diamond shapes →

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What size diamond can I get for €2,000?
With a budget of €2,000 at Diamantwerp, you can get a certified 0.75 carat diamond with Excellent cut and near-colourless grades (G–H colour, VS2 clarity). If you prioritise size over quality grades, you could reach 1.00ct with slightly lower colour and clarity grades.
Is €2,000 enough for a good engagement ring diamond?
Absolutely — a 0.75 carat Excellent cut diamond is a beautiful and meaningful choice for an engagement ring. At Diamantwerp, €2,000 buys you a diamond that would cost €4,500–€6,000 at a traditional jeweller. Paired with a quality setting, it makes a stunning ring. Read our engagement ring buying guide for more advice.
Why are Diamantwerp's prices so much lower?
We source directly from Antwerp's diamond district — the world's largest diamond trading hub — and sell directly to you with minimal overhead. There are no middlemen, no retail showroom costs, and no sales commissions inflating the price. The diamonds are identical to what you'd find at retail; the only difference is the price.
Should I prioritise carat size or quality within my budget?
We recommend prioritising cut quality first, then finding the best carat weight within your remaining budget. An Excellent cut 0.75ct diamond will look more impressive than a poorly cut 1.00ct stone — it will be brighter, more sparkly, and can actually appear larger due to better light performance.
Are all diamonds under €2,000 certified?
Yes. Every diamond at Diamantwerp — regardless of price — comes with an independent grading report from GIA, HRD Antwerp, or IGI. You always know exactly what you are buying. Learn more about diamond certification →
