There's a lot of snobbery surrounding jewellery. Have a look at various jewellers, compare what they have to offer and choose something you like regardless of where it comes from.
Congratulations!

There and to the left a bit |
So many "it depends" answers - it's very much an individual thing OP from both a taste and affordability perspective.
Your best bet is to do what you plan and go and have a look for yourself.
Congratulations though  |

"Awww how lovely! Hatton Garden/Birmingham Jewellery Quarter. Look at what she likes/wears currently, haggle and enjoy it."
I second Jewellery quarter. I lived near there and it has some great family run places. |

When hubby proposed to me he took me out for the day, on the anniversary of us meeting. We sat on a bench at the top of Hatton Flight and he proposed with a haribo ring, made me cry 
We went to town the following week and chose the ring together, from a small independent jeweller shop. We chose a cluster design and had it changed, rotated the cluster 90 degrees. It took them 6 weeks to do but was worth the wait |

I didn’t want a ring but I got one a few months after he asksd me to marry him - a year to the day before we married. I’ve no idea where it’s from, how much it cost & I don’t care. He chose it for me and it means more than anything x

I found a working jewellers and had one designed and made.
Got to choose which diamond went in it, got to see a resin cast of the design before it was cast and then free lifetime cleaning as it’s a custom made item. |

If your fiancee to be likes quirky jewellery, try Stephen Einhorn or The Great Frog. We both have pieces from these places and they are superb.
Would second the bespoke/cast option. Our wedding rings were designed by my ex-bro on law and cast from white gold in Hatton Garden for the price of a low- to medium cost High Street jobby. |

I love the great frog and got my eye on the skull engagement ring, just need to find the guy. I got my wedding ring years ago at Jeremy hoye in Brighton. He does unusual rings but pricey. |
