My ring size is a 5. The 3.2 is a couple thousand more, but in the scheme of things the price increase isn’t a big deciding factor since I’ll be wearing it forever! I think I’m worried the 3.2 is actually a little too big on my finger. I’ll have to wear it around and see if it starts to feel like a more comfortable size to my eye.

Together the 2.6 is brighter, next to each other, there's a hint of brownish in the 3.2.
You aren't going to continue to wear these together, so it all comes down to what you love.
FYI, A diamond will shrink about .15mm per yr...I think I’m worried the 3.2 is actually a little too big on my finger. I’ll have to wear it around and see if it starts to feel like a more comfortable size to my eye.

I’m taking that into consideration!! What looks huge now will look normal in a few months. I’m leaning toward the 3.2 now. Am taking longer to make a decision than anticipated. Literally the color from the side is the only downside....and when I’m not holding them up to a white paper comparing them head to head I doubt I’ll see it much at all. I can’t see color from the top.
Well?? What have you decided?
Congrats!! Both stones are beautiful but you can’t ignore the size difference! . Can’t wait to see the finished ring. As others have mentioned, the setting can make a difference whether or not you will see the brownish tint on the sides. Congrats again!!!I’m going with the 3.2!!!! The chunky facets of the 3.2 under a tree in the sun won me over. It’s honestly like looking at an OEC. I feel like it’s a princess's diamond!! (Don’t worry I’ll take some more pictures now that the decision has been made). Such a different look from the splintery sparkles the 2.54 threw (also super beautiful Yes...it has a bit more warmth, and I battled with that since technically speaking the closer to colorless the better, but I can honestly say I find the very faint hint of color to be beautiful...Additionally; next to my skin from the side I can’t see any color, in person from the top you can’t tell any difference between the two color wise...I could actually see it more on the photos since the flashes and rainbows weren’t happening live . I’m feeling good about my decision and am now super excited to get it set! Thanks so much for all of your help and advise during this process...I’m ending up with a gorgeous super ideal stone thanks to all of your advise.
