[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, I think that the prevalence of lab diamonds has made me not care about big diamonds or big stones anymore. I still have my original engagement diamond, which is a 1.5 ct emerald cut stone that looks quite diminutive these days. I had it reset East to West and put in a plain gold setting and it's even more unobtrusive now....but somehow feels right because it's not trying to look aspirational. If I were getting engaged now, I would probably get an eternity or five stone bad ring and be done with it. The idea of a big solitaire just does not appeal to me anymore.[/quote]

So weird to say a 1.5 carat stone looks “quite diminutive” and claim a “big solitaire just does not appeal to me”.

1.5 carats is not diminutive unless perhaps you are just comparing to others’ (celebs?) rings.

I really don’t get the people who want to buy the largest ring possible and then not wear it because it’s too damn large to be practical and the only point of it was to flash it social media engagement photos (or IRL).

Just get a ring you want to wear, or don’t get one. [/quote]
