No idea how many carats.

May upgrade or may just get other nice jewelry.

5+ carat family ring that I had reset once his Grandmother passed away
Keeping the stone and my husband for this lifetime.

Just curious OP, is this what you were looking for? Validation of your choice I presume? Did you get it?

Also all the people with their 2.5 and 3.5 that were a family heirloom, so you won't be upgrading... really?

OK here I go:

.5
I inherited my grandmother's ring after she died, 2.5 carats and something I always admired. SHe got it as a gift from my grandpa on her 50th birthday and she absolutely loved it. They literally were born into poverty and while they never became wealthy built a beautiful and successful life. I wear both proudly!
No upgrading DH and he feels like Grandma saved him $20K!

You inherited a ring but you question other posters who also have an inherited ring?

I was 26, it's .75 carats, no not upgraded and I don't think I will. It's a classic tiffany solitaire and I think it's perfect.

No silly, I question that they don't need to "upgrade a 3.5 carat" ring. Thats freaking huge by pretty much all standards!

LOL, my guess is it's just all the young little princesses who are on this thread because once you are 30, you don't give a shit about that stupid crap anymore.
