In an email to Insider, Anand said the unique ring « sparked a heated debate » among gemologists at Rare Carat
“First of all, this is a non-traditional engagement ring – an unusual choice for a celebrity,” said Anand “It’s a cushion-shaped stone in a yellow gold setting, with an open back cut so you can see through the skin «
Anand added that his team would need to « take a closer look » to determine if the stone in Collins’ ring is a diamond or a gem
« If it’s a diamond, it’s a rare, flatter cut in the range of four carats – so the retail value is somewhere between $ 50,000 and $ 100,000 » , did he declare « If it’s not a diamond, it’s probably a quartz, which would cost less than $ 5,000 »
