I have a very subjective question but wanted to get some opinions.
My gf''s ring size is a loose 3.5. She is very petite and weighs around 95 lbs and is around 5''3". We went to a jeweler to get her sized and also tried on some rings to get an idea of what diamond sizes would look best on her.
She agreed that a simple round cut on a platinum setting without any side stones and such was what she wanted. Having said that we tried various diamond weights and personally I thought 1.3 was a nice and decent size. Initially I was aiming for around 2 carats but after trying that on it just seemed way too gawdy and unproportional to her.
The culture I''m from is unfortunately very superficial, although my gf isn''t, however her friends are. I don''t want her to be embarassed so i''m willing to spend the money for a good size but nothing too disproportionate. I think I''m going to aim in the range of 1.5-1.8.
Does anyone have any experience or opinions regarding diamond sizes relative to ring size?
