Post Malone is engaged to girlfriend Christy Lee, more than a year after the couple first sparked romance rumors, and her stunning engagement ring is already turning heads.
While the couple has kept much of their relationship out of the spotlight, the news has fans taking a closer look at Lee's dazzling diamond and the striking details of the ring are hard to miss.
Katie Zimmerman, SVP Merchandising at Jared Jewelers and Diamonds Direct, weighed in on the design, noting that the ring appears to feature an elongated oval diamond estimated at approximately 15 to 17 carats, or possibly larger, set in a classic solitaire setting. Based on the apparent size, Zimmerman estimates the ring could be valued between $1.5 million and $2 million.
The diamond
also appears to have a distinctive faceting characteristic, leading Zimmerman to suggest it could be an old mine cut or another unique diamond cut.
"Old mine cut diamonds are especially prized because they are hand-cut, giving each stone its own unique personality and a softer, more romantic glow than many modern cuts," Zimmerman added.
The dramatic design feels fitting for the famously creative couple, while also tapping into one of bridal jewelry's biggest current trends: elongated fancy-shaped diamonds.
