When he got ready to pop the question, Dr. John Carter of NBC's mega-hit, ER, chose a two-carat Royal Oval diamond in an engraved platinum pavÉ setting from Fabrikant. According to the plot, Dr. Carter proposes to his love, nurse Abby Lockhart, and presents her with the engagement ring, valued at $20,000. For those not of Dr. Carter's legendary wealth, Fabrikant principal Susan Fortgang offers the perfect solution. “We recognize that the cost may be higher than many people may choose to spend and have designed the same style of this ring with smaller center diamonds,” she says. The ring can be made with center stones beginning at 0.25 carats at a cost of about $3,000.
