How exciting! It's really beautiful @SapphireBlue Love ovals, so elegant and flattering on the hand. Looks perfect on you...give it a little time, you'll get used to it. I'd love to see more pics if you get a chance!

It's beautiful! I love how you pair it with the gold band so that the diamond takes center stage.

What a beautiful ring!

Years ago, when I got engaged, in the 1970’s, I would have thought it was a bigger than average (in a good way) diamond. But having seen many engagement rings on PS, I now think that the size is just perfect - not too big, not too small, as Goldilocks would say.

I hope you’ll agree with my statement in a few month’s time, as you get used to wearing your ring.

If you feel it's a tad too big for you now, then it's probably perfect. Soon enough you'll get used to the size and it will feel just right - not just not too big, but also not too small, which is equally important.

It looks really nice on you! It only takes me about 2 weeks for my mind to do a reset on what seemed huge to now
be the new normal.

Enjoy your new ering!

Beautiful and classic! And enjoy it feeling huge, great problem to have!!

 

[SapphireBlue]

Thank you all so much! This online community never stops amazing me with how kind and helpful and just KIND you all are.

I have wanted a ring like this since my husband told me to pick out a ring almost 9 years ago . . . and, truthfully, probably since before then. But life happened, yadda yadda, and I am only now getting it. But it was worth the wait!

Specs: It's a lab-created diamond, G VS2, 1.17 carats (but cut shallow [yet still well, I think], so it actually has the look of a 1.3-carat stone).

Wishing you all many gorgeous stones and much good health and happiness.

Very pretty!

You can always have it taken in a little.

It couldn't be more perfect for your hand, @SapphireBlue — it's elegant, a classic beauty.

Thank you so much! It is just what I always wanted. It may have taken longer to get the dream ring, but the appreciation is even stronger than it would have been.

I hope you are rocking all of your beautiful jewelry and loving every minute of it, too.
