What’s a good place to get engagement rings that *arent diamond? (lemmy.world)

I’m thinking about proposing to my girl, however we both think diamonds as a standard is stupid and overrated, we both prefer much more colorful and comparatively cheaper gemstones like rubies and sapphires, but I’m having trouble finding a good place for that, I’ve never done this before, any ideas?

I found a nice used mount in need of minor repairs on eBay and found a good moissanite stone there as well. Beautiful ring, around 400 all told for a white gold ring and a 2 carat stone. Can get crazy lab grown gems online of any type, so enjoy however you choose to do rings together.
