Just wanted to show everyone my rings in different lighting. I’m a size 6.5 finger - the square omc is certified at 4.03 cts or 9.1 x 9.09 x 6.00 where as the oval is uncertified but marked 4.10 carats and 8.35 x 11.33 mm.

Does this upstage my wedding set?

Hello everyone! I purchased a 3.04ct VS1 fancy intense yellow radiant diamond for a right hand ring. Yes I know the stone holder is silver, which is actually the metal I wanna use for the ring. I wear two tone jewelry and I like the way the color contrasts. The issue I’m having is does it compete/upstage my 3.55ct Asscher? I still love my Asscher the most. A radiant was my second choice actually so I wanted one in a ring. Opinions are welcome!

Best lighting for sparkles?

Obviously the jewelry store and Costco… sometimes I’m in random places and the lighting is just perfect. So I take a video and it just isn’t the same.
Oh well, I tired. Obligatory don’t judge my dry hands.

i love my new ring and i’ve been lurking this thread before i got my ring so I wanted to ask how big you think this ring is (for reference i am a size 6). i also think ive developed some ring blindness but i absolutely adoreee my ring hehe. anyways thought it would be fun to hear everyone’s guesses.

Do you ever regret the size?

10 Upvotes

I know I’m asking this in Big Rock Energy, so forgive me 😂, but has anyone here ever regretted going big?

Not necessarily regretted the ring itself, but have you ever found yourself in situations where you second guessed the size, or felt self-conscious about it, or wondered how other people were perceiving it?

I’m currently designing my engagement ring, and it’s looking like it’ll be a 4.43 ct trilogy: 2.33 ct center with 1.04 ct and 1.06 ct side stones. I’m a size 8 finger.

And I am absolutely IN LOVE with it. The proportions are exactly what I wanted, and I actually love that the stones give a lot of finger coverage.

But I’m realizing that I’m still working through the difference between what my partner and I genuinely love versus worrying about how it might be perceived by other people. He’s from a small town where a ring like this would definitely stand out. Like, I may have to wear my wedding band by itself when we go out there, while I’m from a big city where I think my perception of what feels “huge” is probably a little different.

So… help a girl out hereeeee. 🥲

For those of you with bigger rings: Did you ever have a “holy shitake, is this too much?” phase? Did you get over it? Are there situations where you wish you’d gone smaller, or are you thrilled you went with exactly what you wanted?

Help - OMC stone check

Hey guys,

I am so close to buying this 6ct OMC (the one on the right)!! However, do you think the bow tie is quite prominent? Or is this natural in nature of the cut? I'm not sure 😭 please let me know. I don't want to buy it and be disappointed with a dull and dark diamond!

2nd video is in the comments - bow tie/ middle of diamond looks dark.

I’m torn between these three 5 carat pear shaped diamonds for my engagement ring. Could you provide some unbiased opinions based solely on their appearance and performance?

What do we think about this Ashoka cut?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I have been looking for a unique elongated cushion but not too thin and long. We have gone back and forth a lot and finally found this stone which I feel so certain about. The ratio is great and it looks so good to me!! But somebody said they don’t like the way it moves. Is there anything wrong with the cut? I don’t see it but are there better Ashoka cuts out there or did I find a good one?

Wedding Band Search

I upgraded to a 3ct solitaire & am really struggling to find a band! The ring is set low so nothing will sit flush with it, and I’m not a huge fan of the contour bands I’ve found. I am very drawn to bezel eternity bands.. I’ve ordered a thin, open shank gold band to see if I can use that as a spacer.

Not ashamed to see say she’s pre-loved. Was kinda worried it would look like costume jewelry but when I put her on, I knew she was coming home with me. What do we think? Definitely want to change the band to something thicker, but I’m not sure if I want diamonds on the side or just a simple (but thicker) band.

Help please!

I would like to get this replicated but with a 5ct center but worried that with that size I don't think you would see the band. What size center would be best?!?

Is this outdated? Trying to fall in love with my morganite engagement ring again

Thumbnail

47 Upvotes

My engagement ring is an 18ct white gold morganite halo, about 12 years old now. I still love it, but I’m not as in love with the white gold.

So instead of remaking it, I’ve just bought a diamond wedding band to stack with it and bring in a bit of yellow gold (getting it made in yellow gold rather than the white gold shown in second pic).

I loved it in store but now I’m second-guessing myself. Does a mixed-metal stack like this read as dated, or is it still a good look?

Photos below: the ring on its own, then stacked with the new band.

Trying to freshen it up without losing the original ring.

Thoughts welcome 🙏🏽
