Wedding ring after divorce

[Jasabal]

Hi guys. I am getting divorced soon. What’s the best thing to do with the ring afterwards. It is 18 carats rose gold and has a diamond in it. Thinking of making a necklace with the diamond. Have no idea where I would sell it if i wanted to. Thanks in advance.

My engagement and wedding rings are in a drawer. Both white gold and diamond. I wouldn’t want to wear them even if they were remodelled into something else. I keep thinking about selling them but no idea how to go about it and don’t want to be ripped off

It's a good time to sell gold!

I made a pendant made from a diamond ring, and the ring was melted down for the mount.

If you have children they might like them one day. I would have liked my parents ones, they are long divorced and the rings are long gone now.

I'm very torn over what to do with my wedding and engagement rings. Both currently in a drawer, but my wedding ring was my grandmother's, so I don't want to sell it, maybe I'll keep it a while and then get it remodeled. My engagement is a cluster ring, so I don't know if its worth much, but I might sell it and buy a takeaway!

Mine are in my jewellery box. I'll probably give them to my daughter when she's older, she can either keep them as rings or we can get the stones turned into something else for her. I wouldn't want to wear them in any form anymore tbh, but DD was KS1 when we split so thought she might like something to remember that even if things didn't work out she was born into what was once a very happy and loving marriage. If she doesn't want them I'll probably just sell them

I kept them in a drawer for a while then got around to selling them, back to the jeweller who made them. Have put the money towards a great holiday this summer with my son.

I’d sell them personally

I’d sell it whilst the price for gold is high

Mine was originally my grandmothers; I gave it to DD recently for her to do with as she wishes, including melting it down to reuse or selling it for the gold.

I don't know. My wedding meant so much to me. I cant part with my lovely celtic ring. Its in my jewellery box. He ran off 8 years ago.

I sold my first set, then after second divorce (no, I’m not cut out for married life) I kept them both. Wear my engagement ring on a different finger, and pop wedding ring on when I travel abroad solo, which I do quite often for work.

Definitely would like to sell and put money towards a holiday. It does not have any sentimental value. I did not even choose ring. I knew him for 15 years when we married and it folded very quickly after marriage when he moved in. He was not the person I married. Just want to forget him now. Think I will do some research and go to some jewellers. I live in Glasgow incase anyone knows where to go. Thank you for all your responses.

You could go into a few jewellers and they will weigh it and can give you an idea of price. Would be for the gold weight and it’s a good price at the moment. Then you could do something else with the diamond if you wanted to.
