Women - question about rings

[Anonymous]

The other thread got me thinking. Would you rate have a high quality ( ideal cut, high grade color and clarity, and no fluorescence) that is 1.5 carats, or a still good quality but not as great 2 carat? Would you sacrifice better quality over size?

I'd rather have a man who didn't buy into this crap.

And please no “ I want less expensive or smaller”. I don’t need a ring stuff.

OP here. Then don’t post. This thread is not for you. I don’t want to hear from women like you. I want to hear from women who care about rings.

Quality over size, definitely. Also 1.5 isn't exactly small.

[Anonymous]

I’d rather have a 1.5 ct better quality stone. I think 2 ct is just too big unless you are going for “wealthy old lady” look

How big are your fingers? If you have doughy hands, you'll probably want a bigger stone.

Really wouldn't care. I'd have loved whatever DH gave me.

OP here. I plan to propose this year and have started looking at rings. I’ve found a really good quality 1.5 carat ring and then a still good quality, but not as high 2 carat. I’m wondering if the size is worth it or if a smaller one is worth it. We will likely pass down the ring to future kids.

My ring is very high quality, just under 1.5 carats and I’m a medium sized woman (5’7, 135lbs), and it fits me perfectly. I wouldn’t have wanted something bigger, especially in my mid-20s when we got engaged and married. I’m late 30s now and still think my ring is perfect.

How big are her fingers?

Depends. I don’t need ideal cut or D or E color, but I wouldn’t want H or I color either. Too yellow. I also don’t need flawless, but no SI either. There is a happy medium.

Can you give us stats on the 2ct? CCC

I would take the smaller one as .5 isn't that huge of a difference to me. That being said, I'm 5'10 with hands to match, I have some serious jewelry, and I'm a size queen.
