My boyfriend and I are in the process of commissioning a custom-made solitaire engagement ring. We are considering a 5.5mm round shape Alexandrite (0.7/8 carats). Would this be a reasonable size stone for an engagement ring? To be honest we cannot really afford to spend a lot more for it to be bigger (with a fair colour change!), and we are quite excited about the idea of getting an Alexandrite, but we don't want to buy something that will end up disappointing us either... If this is too small of a size, we might as well consider another stone. Do you have any recommendations regarding the size, or even other stones that you believe are interesting? We're also hoping the setting will enhance the stone as much as possible and are putting some more emphasis on getting some beautiful artwork to end up with a nice piece. We thought others' opinions and insights could be very useful before proceeding with our plan!
Many thanks,
