Congrats on your engagement! Such a beautiful ring. I love how the diamond picks up the surrounding colors. Just gorgeous!
 
It is absolutely gorgeous, what a fantastic choice. It's perfect on her hand. Such a beautiful place to get engaged too. Wishing you both all the happiness in the world!
 
Beautiful!!! Congratulations on your engagement :cool2::appl:

I advise against taking it down the half size:
1. I see she is wearing long sleeves in your photos. Fingers swell in the heat of summer - a half-size differential between warm-weather size and cold-weather size is not uncommon. You don’t want it to be too small in summer!
2. Once she’s wearing a wedding band, the total width of both rings will “fit” a half size or so smaller than each thinner ring feels independently. An engagement ring thats slightly too large will probably be a perfect fit with a same-size wedding band.

If you’re planning a longer engagement and she’s truly worried about it slipping off sizing beads are the way to go - they’re removable and they don’t compromise the structural integrity of the band (no cutting the band and reattaching it).
 
Congratulations! I agree about the sizing. Its looks perfect right now on her finger, even a teeny snug I thought from photos. When she adds a wedding band the width will make them tighter. I've determined this recently myself with the same situation!
 
Gorgeous ring!!! What does she say about it? We need adjectives lol..

Love the size too. Great size.
 
I had no idea about the sizing being tighter when adding the band-thank you for that. We are in Hawaii, so humid and warm. We watched sunrise so it was a bit cooler before sun came up. We plan for a longer engagement to finish doctorate program. 1-2 years probably. I will look into sizing beads for sure!!

Adjectives she has said: big, huge, perfect, classy, sparkly, shiny, WOW, amazing, white!!! She says that she would have noticed this ring if on someone else and thought wow I like that!

I asked if she would have preferred a thin pave setting and of course she says no and she’s in love with her ring. But we will probably do a delicate pave wedding band with it.

She definitely appreciated I did my homework and wanted her to be the happiest. She says she wants this forever and couldn’t imagine wanting to upgrade. Hopefully she’s not just being sweet ;)

Well done!

She’s wearing a size 6 but perhaps slightly too big so maybe a 5.5 if we size but as suggested might hold off :) thanks!!!

I'm going to file this away for when people come to PS, asking for a diamond with perfect proportions to a size 5.5 - 6 finger. It's a beautiful combo!
 
I’m so thrilled you finally got your ring.It is beautiful and looks HUGE on her hand. It is a good thing you didn’t pick the 1.32 I. I had to send it back, appraiser said it was more a J color! Honestly I can’t see DSS happening soon,or at all. It’s just perfect on her!!
 
Gosh, I love everything about this ring. The diamond is blinding, the setting is beautiful & the size on her hand is perfect. :love:

I also have to chime in on the argument to not get the setting made half a size smaller. Bands add girth, so for me, my wedding band by itself is loose & I worry i’ll lose It in the shower, with my pear cut is just right, with my eternity ring & things start to get tight.
 
:appl:It is simply GORGEOUS!!! Congratulations!!!!
 
Congratulations! It’s also great that she has a perfect manicure for the occasion. ;)2 Maybe you can size it down by a quarter?
 
Really beautiful and classic! Looks perfect on her! I would wait a few months to see for sure if it needs to be resized.
 
Congratulations! The ring looks beautiful on her hand.
 
Beautiful ring!

Thank you kindly! She had asked me last week what color to do her nails and I told her something plain like red or pink or blue solid. She did not listen ha. I couldn’t push the fact as it was a surprise. I let her know that was why and we had a good laugh about the flamingo being in her engagement pics forever.
 
Lovely ring. It looks perfect on her hand. And I love her nails! Uniformity is boring! Congratulations on your engagement.
 
it's gorgeous! Congratulations! :love:
 
Congratulations! I love her nails. Love the ring. It’s gorgeous. You did great !!!!
 
Congratulations!!
 
Congratulations and you have a beautiful ring!
