Is the diamond in a 18kt hge real
It is worth nothing at all. HGE refers to heavy gold electroplated. Though 18KT refers to 18 karat gold or 75 percentage gold, 18KT HGE is worth nothing.
18K HGE = 18K Heavy Gold Electroplate = plated and not solid 18K gold ESPO = maker ESP) is Esposito Jewelry whilst ESPO/SIG = joseph esposito
HGE stands for heavy gold electroplate, your ring is not gold, it is only plated. That also means that it is not a diamond, because diamonds are never set in FAKE jewelry.
It basically means the ring is electroplated with 18kt gold not solid gold as per the more expensive rings! The term "karatclad" is also a tip-off that the item is electroplated rather than solid gold.
14 kt GE , means it has a very thin layer of 14kt gold over it (gold eletroplated) ESPO was an Us brand , famous in the 60's and 70's , so it menas the ring has got quite a value as a vintage The 'ESPO' is short for Esposito, he's still designing jewelry (has a range on QVC) so the ring isn't necessarily worth any more as a vintage.

14kt hge ring gold
If something is stamped "18K HGE" it is not real gold. The letters "HGE" is a quality mark used for costume jewelry, and it stands for "Heavy Gold Electroplate". The item that is electroplated has a very thin layer of gold that has been applied to its base metal, which is usually brass. This is considered "costume" jewelry since it is not gold through and through. 18KT HGE is absolutely REAL gold and in fact, the electroplating on HGE is "heavy" therefore it is quite good quality. Just because the ring is not solid gold doesn't mean the gold isn't real. The peice you have, if it appears in good condition, is very good quality.
