My wife LOVES her ring. I have never seen a woman look at her ring so often. That is why for me its worth every penny to make her ring perfection. In the past she mentioned wanting something bigger than 2 carats. She also mentioned wanting a Halo setting on her current diamond.
I am looking at either upgrading to:
A) 2.35 ct stone, same specs as her current one (VS1, H, Ideal cut). This would cost me $7,000 (the current 1.7 would have to be traded in, of course). Set on her current setting. The option of ever getting a Halo would be voided, since that would be ridiculous on her tiny 4.5 finger.
B) Setting the stone in a halo setting. I know she saw a couple of ritani settings she liked, I am estimating that to cost me around $6,000 with the matching wedding band.
C) Getting a 1.98 ct stone, same specs for $4000. Then later have it set in one of the ritani set she likes.
D) Any other suggestions you experts could give me!
