Just out of curiosity do you prefer a smaller but ideal cut stone vs a good cut but larger stone?
I’m torn on which I like better. I have an ideal 1.5 carat L, SI1, AGS 000 and a 1.9 H, I1/2 stone that has a good cut. I’m awaiting the official GIA report on the 1.9 stone. The good cut sparkles as well but maybe not quite as bright and just seems so much bigger but the smaller one you can actually see the arrows and is gorgeous. I wear a size 9 though so I feel like I need more finger coverage.
I’m thinking I should stick the smaller stone in a David Klass suspended halo.
At the same time, my rings come and go, I upgrade and trade out both stones and settings pretty often. I get bored. So really I’d want to keep whichever one would be easiest to sell in the future.
Pics are attached, the smaller one is in the rose gold solitaire setting and the bigger one is in the setting with baguettes. Both pics were done in the same place with similar lighting. I’ve also come to realize I hate rose gold with my skin tone so if I keep the smaller stone which is an L it would go in a white gold halo. I do feel like it faces up pretty white.
Thoughts?
