My girlfriend's ring size is 4.5. One dealer (who I spoke with by phone) said that I shouldn't go above 1.25 carats. I was planning on something in the 1.5-1.7 carat range, possibly even a little larger. My girlfriend doesn't wear any other jewelry (except a watch). We looked a few stones and she seemed comfortable with anything up to 2 carats, but that was just a few seconds each, and the bands didn't fit (just looking at the mirror, not actually wearing the thing). I don't want to get her something too big, i.e., impedes her normal life, she is too aware of it.
Is the dealer just giving me b.s.? What size stone should I be looking for? She's about 5'4, average weight, 4.5 ring size.
Thanks a lot in advance for any thoughts.
