With Valentine's Day on the horizon, savvy shoppers looking to propose without breaking the bank have a golden opportunity. Major jewellery retailers are extending their post-Christmas sales, offering significant discounts on premium engagement rings.
Star Deal: A Designer Ring at a Fraction of the Price
The standout offer comes from high street jeweller Ernest Jones. They have slashed the price of a Vera Wang 18ct White Gold Solitaire Certificated 0.50ct Diamond Engagement Ring by a massive 45%. This cut represents a saving of over £1,500, reducing the price from £2,750 to £1,275.
As an added bonus, at the time of writing, shoppers can apply the code EXTRA15 for an additional 15% off, saving a further £225. This makes the iconic piece, designed to symbolise timeless romance, more accessible than ever for a February proposal.
What Makes This Ring Special?
Created by legendary bridal designer Vera Wang, this ring is crafted from 18ct white gold and features a total diamond carat weight of 0.50ct. The design includes round and baguette diamonds, complemented by diamond-set shoulders. A distinctive blue sapphire accent is incorporated, traditionally symbolising everlasting love.
