This Pumpkin Spice Latte Engagement Ring Can Be Yours for Only $10K

Angelic Diamonds — a self-described “customer-focused jewelry company specializing in the design and manufacture of fine diamond jewelry” based in northern England — whipped up the £10,000 ring (a mere $10,800 at the current historically-favorable exchange rate) to “add a little spice to proposals” this fall.

The brand says that “every detail is inspired by pumpkin spice lattes” starting with a rose gold band “designed to replicate the rib shape of a pumpkin” with white diamonds, orange sapphires, and emerald shoulder stones down either side. From there, the ring features a single “whipped cream shaped” center diamond surrounded by a cluster of white diamonds and orange sapphires “set in a cup-shaped claw, reminiscent of a warm cup of pumpkin spice-goodness.”
