I need pictures of round diamond solitaires!

[enjohnson801]

I inadvertently found out my boyfriend bought me a ring (oops). It''s a 1.5 carat round Solitaire. I have NO IDEA how big that will look on my finger (size 5) and am dying to know, but don''t want to go try one on (I''m afraid I will fall in love with a different ring, haha). If you have pics of a ring in that size range, please post it!!! THANKS!

 

[luv2sparkle]

Erin, there are lots of folks here that have that size, just do a search. I think there is a thread called show me you 1.5 to 2 ct stone. It might also be in the helpful
threads archive. Good luck.

 

[enjohnson801]

I searched it already. That is how I found this site. I found about 5 or 6 pictures, but would like to see a couple more for more info. Thanks!

 

[luv2sparkle]

Right above your post there is a thread called SMTR Helpful threads archive. There is a thread on there for you. If you have time there is a ton in the eye candy folder as well.
Try to search as well in the search on the site, not just google. Believe me there is a ton.

Hopefully this will help a little, although yours is bigger

My 1.19ct on a size 4.5

another---Hope that helps a little. I bet you're excited!

 

[waterlilly]

That is going to be a lovely ring - fabulous size stone!

Look at this thread, people usually list the ring size and stone stats:

1-2 ct stone

 

[EHR2009]

Here is my 1.53 on a size 4.25. This should be pretty similar to yours.

 

[EHR2009]

Another. I am trying to include some real-life perspectives to give you a good idea of the size.

 

[EHR2009]

One more. I think 1.5 is a great size! Especially in a solitaire! It gives you lots of options (I do a lot of different band options with my wedding set, as you can see .

 

[enjohnson801]

Wow! All your rings are so beautiful! They look huge!! I guess I wasn''t expecting them to look that big! I really like the smaller diamonds on the band. Definitely a nice touch!

 

[EHR2009]

Purpleshirt, your heart prongs are adorable!!!

Check the real life perspective thread too in the healpful threads archive that Lus2sparkle mentioned.

I think it''s hard to judge based on ring size and carat size alone. I have a 1.96 and I wear a size five. But my fingers are short and pudgy. So to me, I think my diamond looks smaller than it would on maybe a woman with a size 6, long, slender finger. No matter what you see in pictures, trust me, it will look and feel huge on your finger when you get it. I used to cut out tiny paper circles that were the same size of my diamond before I got it to get an idea of how it would look on me. Paper and diamonds are no comparison. Still, it was a fun waste of time!

Anyway, here''s a pic.

How exciting for you. I can''t wait to see it. I am sure it will look great and huge on your finger. All the pictures posted look pretty too.

Mine was probably in that other thread but I''ll play anyway It''s a little smaller than yours at 1.35, and my ring size is 5.25. Here it is in my yellow room in front of pricescope.

 

[enjohnson801]

Kelli,

Your ring looks almost identical to mine. Yours is so pretty!

Pretty ring. Your diamond looks huge on your hand. Much bigger than a 1.5.

Thanks, MC! I get that a lot, and I think it has to due with a few factors:
-The band tapers toward the diamond, which makes it pop a little, I think
-I have small (size 4.25-4.5 fingers)
-This part seems silly, but I think that extra .03 carat weight does make a tiny bit of a visual difference, even though I think the experts might disagree.

EHR, I can''t stop looking at your rings!!! And your hands are so beautiful!!! I wish I had longer fingers so that I could stack on more bling!

 

[EHR2009]

Thanks, Chiquita! I love your ring, too! Especially the pic in your avatar!
