What do you think? Not too big of a difference visually, eh?

Would you maybe like just a whole other ring? Leave this as is, and get a different shape in a plain shank halo. Mix them up day to day.

I don't know- I'm terribly confused I have some strict parameters though, which is that since we bought the stone at a local B&M store, we are limited to working with him. He credits you what you paid for it and then you just pay the difference on whatever new stone you want. Even though diamond prices have risen a lot since we bought it in 2003, we wouldn't be able to sell the stone ourselves and break even.
My husband and I haven't talked budget in too much detail, but I would think the most I could pay out of pocket would be $4k-$4500.
I could get a new wedding ring or maybe a 5 stone ring, though not sure if that would be too similar to my ering.

Your current ring really is just perfection I think. Maybe a blingy 5 stone to wear with it? With your tiny fingers, 5 x 0.20s or 5 x 0.25s would be awesome.

Then you could sell the side stones to pay for a simple solitaire setting until you can reset. Or keep the side stones and pay a few hundred out of your budget to set it into a solitaire.

Any chance you could preserve the original setting with choosing a reasonably priced colored stone and keep the new larger stone in a solitaire? Would you be able to appreciate the larger diamond once it is meshed with the two side stones?
You'd rock that solitaire beautifully since it is large and then wear the three stone ring as an alternative. You have beautiful hands for both settings. Moreover, you mentioned you have two solitaire settings so you would not be out any extra $$, just for the colored stone, and that could be done at a later date. And I think us CS'ers could help you on that score

I'd definitely be interested in a colored stone! Will head over to CS for some ideas.
