LW Ratio

[lola73]

Does anybody know where I can find out what my LW ratio is for my ring? I remember finding a site where I entered the dimensions, and it gave me the answer, but now I can''t remeber. Also, am I correct in saying that the closer to 1:1 you have, the better?

Thanks in advance....

what shape is it? take the longest length and divide by the (shorter) width.

The shape is princess cut. Was I correct in saying that it should be as close to a 1:1 ?

 

[JulieN]

yes

Well, I did what you said and the answer I got was 1.05.....does that make any sense, and if so, is it good? I am terrible at math, I have dyslexia.....Uhhhhh!

That was the site, you must have read my mind! LOL, when I did the calculations, the result was 1.06:1, I believe this is good. Am I correct?

Thanks again!

Hey! It is not an issue of whether that ratio is good or bad, just what your preferences are...
