The contemporary pieces have lovely white gold flower diamond designs that give them a timeless, classic appearance. When the Duchess looks back at these pictures, she won't wince! Probably none of us will find these in our Christmas stockings for $8,100, but we can hope.

Value Approximation: $350,000*
When Meghan Markle and Prince Harry announced their engagement in 2017, their pictures stood out a little from previous royal engagement portraits. Meg's Cleave and Company ring made its debut in the black-and-white pictures, but it was more than just an expensive stone.

Harry included a $350,000 ethically sourced diamond from Botswana to commemorate the couple's first trip together. He then nested two diamonds from his mother's brooch on either side to create a genuinely iconic piece of jewelry that Meg was unable to resist.
