The actor chose one amazing ring to propose to Paris Hilton. “He came to me and told me that he’s looking for the dream diamond for his princess,” jeweler Michael Greene of Greene & Co. tells The Knot in an interview. “And he wanted it to be a pear shape because that’s what her mother has.”
“He’s seen Paris admiring her mother’s ring and trying it on at different times during dinner,” Greene notes. “And he just really watched the way she just loved that ring. That’s why we came up with the shape.”
The center stone is a “little bit over 20 carats,” Greene notes, “and the stones around the ring are just under 2 carats. It’s a platinum, split-shank ring with a halo around the center stone.” The ring itself is valued at $2 million.
