With Valentine's Day less than two weeks away, you may be scrambling to find your other half the perfect present. And if you've decided jewellery is the way to go - always a safe bet - Ernest Jones has reduced the price of some of its gorgeous jewellery pieces by 50% in its Valentine's Day sale. While there are some gorgeous necklaces, watches and earrings on offer, the brand's rings have been vastly reduced if you're planning something super special - including the Platinum 1ct Diamond Round Cut Four Claw Solitaire Ring.

The prestigious jewellery brand has a pretty impressive celebrity fan base with the likes of Beyonce and Kate Moss having sported designs sold by the brand in the past - the musical superstar has reportedly been spotted wearing Le Vian rings, which Ernest Jones stocks.

The Platinum 1ct Diamond Round Cut Four Claw Solitaire Ring is a stunning design that'd make any woman weak at the knees with a a row of diamonds surrounding the solitaire, ensuring it glistens at all angles. And while its usual £4000 price tag is pretty eye-watering, it's currently on sale for £2000 - half price - which is slightly easier on the purse strings if you've been saving for a certain special occasion...

The GSI certified ring is made from durable platinum and has been designed in this finish for a timeless style and will last 'for generations to come'.

Ideal as an engagement ring, the ring has a diamond carat weight of 1ct, a clear clarity of 12, colour I. It's an impressive ring that'll add sparkle to any hand and outfit and leave your partner with the biggest smile on their face.

If you're after more of an eternity ring, the brand's 18ct White Gold 0.50ct Round Cut Eternity Ring has been slashed in price from £1,500 to £750. A gorgeous piece to symbolise everlasting love and commitment, the platinum band has been set with a row of brilliant, shimmering diamonds - the perfect present for your spouse come Valentine's Day or your diamond anniversary.

Customers who have bought this stunning piece have called it the 'most beautiful eternity ring', with one happy shopper citing: "I spent a long time looking for the perfect eternity ring and finally settled on this one. My husband purchased it for me for my 40th birthday after previously having a bad experience with another jeweller. It is simply beautiful.

"It fits perfectly and really compliments my engagement and wedding ring. I love the half band of diamonds and they are super sparkly. I thought it was really good value and purchased it in the sale at half the price. I'm delighted with it and would highly recommend it. The ring arrived quickly and beautifully presented. It looks just like the photos. I'm a happy customer."

Another, who bought the ring as a present for his wife, said: "A beautiful ring, my wife doesn’t know about it yet but will love it I’m sure. Great quality and the diamonds really sparkle."

For those after a bridal set - which consists of a pear shaped engagement ring and curved wedding band - Ernest Jones has reduced the price of the Vera Wang Platinum 1.25ct Diamond Pear Shaped Bridal Set by £2,000, meaning it now costs £3,500 from £5,500.

A description on the website reads: "A pear shaped engagement ring with a pear cut center stone, elegantly surrounded by a double halo of diamonds. Baguette cut diamonds set each side of the pear, adding to its brilliance. The set is completed with a curved wedding band adorned with round cut diamonds, creating a harmonious and stunning ensemble".

While none of these bands have any negative reviews to go off, which really showcases their impressive make up and design, it's important to find the right ring size to avoid any awkward sizing issues. Although, if this does happen, you can return or exchange the items within 30 days via royal mail - given the ring is returned in its original condition.

The good news for the last minute gift getters is that the rings have an estimated delivery date - if purchased today - of Thursday February 6 and Friday, February 7, meaning you'll get it in plenty of time for Valentine's Day.
