I am getting ready to buy a diamond, a 1.14ct pear e/vs1. My girlfriend is a rather petite. About 5'2" average to petite build, with small slender hands and fingers. Her ring size is around a 5 1/4 to 5 1/2. I am wondering, and have been told by my parents that 1ct or larger will look to big on her small hand and will also be in the way.
Obviously I am sure she would be very happy with the 1.14ct. Especially sense she is really expecting around a .5ct.
What does everyone think??? Especially the ladies??? Keep in mind she is 22.
Also, originally I was not planning on getting a seperate wedding band. I was just going to use the extra money in the main solitare. But, now I think I am going to, (a simple platinum band with a few small rounds set low inside of it). She works in a chemistry lab and I think it would be nice if she can leave the wedding band on and take the actual diamond off, while she works. I don't think she will be able to wear a diamond at work!
Any comments???
