People always want to know how much would certain setting, certain diamond, certain appraisal cost, and this is pretty natural when you consider that diamonds are the most expensive jewelry of them all. There can't be universal answer for this type of questions because final price depends on many different elements that should be all taken into account. I will try to show you what I mean by explaining you for instance what elements should you consider when calculating costs of lets say putting diamond into platinum setting. Combination of diamond and platinum certainly looks great but it also has quite a price that needs to be paid to jeweler who will have to joint these two together into one exquisite piece of jewelry.
The starting point is of course selecting the jeweler that will do the job. Very famous and trusted jewelers are likely to demand higher prices but they ensure quality for the extra money spent on them. If you happen to already have both platinum setting as well as the diamond then this job of merging these two shouldn't take too long, and most importantly it shouldn't be too expensive. Of course it all depends what settings you prefer, and how difficult would it be for jeweler to put your diamond into this setting. The more difficulties with putting diamond into the setting means you'll have to pay more to jeweler. The wisest thing would definitely be to call several jewelers and compare their prices before choosing the one that will do the job in the end.
If you aren't already in the possession of platinum setting then your final expenses will be significantly higher especially if you opt for some highly demanding custom made setting that can in the end turn out to be even more expensive than the diamond you're putting in.
The one thing you must always remember when talking about diamonds - there are no such things as the usual prices or costs. Most people that buy diamonds have their own desire about what they want to buy and how they want their diamond (and setting) to look like so final price is in reality the result of buyer's desires and specifications given to chosen jeweler. There are some who want even bother asking the final price because all they care is to get what they want while the others will maybe even change their wishes because they cannot make their wish come true since this would cost too much.
This is really quite simple when you think of it, first make sure to know what exactly you look for (the setting and the diamond), set your budget, ask couple of jewelers and/or check online to find some available prices, and you're only one step away from getting that desired piece of diamond jewelry.
