Yeah, you read that right. Kim Kardashian West’s ring is only the THIRD most expensive on this list! We’ll be the first to admit, some of the rings on this list are just crazy….but we love looking at them anyways. From 8.5 carats and up, these rings are as massive as they are beautiful.
Top 10 Most Expensive Engagement Rings:
