While some celebrities wear under-emphasized engagement rings, Jost made sure that his future wife would stand out among all engaged Hollywood stars. In May 2019, Jost gave Johansson a state-of-the-art 11-carat diamond ring in exchange for her hand for marriage.
The Estimated Price Tag for it Ranges Between $200,000 and $400,000
The public and media went crazy about how splendid and beautiful the ring was. According to the reports, Jost got it from Taffin’s James de Givenchy. Diamond experts are in a debate regarding the estimated price tag of the ring. Some are saying that an elegant piece like that probably costs $200,000 while some believe it’s around $400,000.
The vice president of Shane Co. Alicia Davis said a rare diamond like Johansson’s engagement ring could cost even more than $400,000. Several gemologists and data scientists agreed with Davis’ statement. Colored diamonds particularly a light brown is hard to find. Plus they used an old cut method giving it an antique style, which adds to its value.
If that’s the case, Johansson’s engagement ring belongs to the group of the purest and rarest type of diamonds. Type IIA diamonds have no nitrogen impurities, unlike the standard ones. Famous pieces of its kind include the Cullinan and Koh-i-Noor.
