@joey_v I know you have done a lot of research and you have a generous budget (hence the big oval and pear), but I have to ask have you considered one of these for the optimal light performance? I mean look at the ASET. This is, of course, is earth mined, but I’m sure Rhino could cut you a large lab version. Or, you could just buy this one, bezel it and she could wear it everyday…

This is my dream in an elongated stone! I love his ovals!!!
Looking at that elyque, that’s a really deep cut.

It is, but I think that one of the reasons it has top light performance.

I would have no problem rocking that baby on my finger, maybe not every day or every location, but I definitely would love the option to wear it whenever I wanted. It's stunning!

Hubby upgraded me to current 5.5 round. I love it. He was talking about another upgrade and I said no. He’s just a big is better guy lol. I may be tempted in the future but current ring gets a lot of attention even with friends that could afford it. I truly believe non pricescopers tend to judge. If they don’t really love and appreciate diamonds they just jump to conclusions. But guess what? I don’t care lol!!!!!!!! I wear all my Jewellry for ME. So if your wife loves it her height and lifestyle do not matter. Can’t wear my Jewellry to and into the grave so I will enjoy it now.
That deep, difficult to set without looking too tall. Especially given small face up dimensions. That 3 Ct has the depth of a near 6 Ct but the top face up dimensions of a 2 ct.
I set it on a temporary silver setting, size 9 for the wife as she wears it around the house.

It really is a gorgeous oval..
I would love to see it on your wife’s hand for perspective.It really is a gorgeous oval..
I’ll definitely get a pic tonight after she gets home from work. Def no big oval for work.
The pear arrives tomorrow so she’s excited.
Oval vs original wf aca 1.5
Ummm we need profile shots too so we can visualize the height off the finger...just kidding. I want to see the hot glue work.

You are so mean
Invisible gallery AND invisible prongs!
Only joshing around. I would totally do the hot glue thing too. I'm legitimately impressed the hot glue survived the grocery store.

This post: HOF status.
The hot glue! Hahahaha incredible.
I am also 5 ft tall, not particularly flashy, but live in a relatively HCOL area. My center stone is just over 5ct, though admittedly likely faces up smaller than yours since it's both smaller in general, and also an emerald cut.
I will wear a smaller ring when I'm traveling for work but otherwise wear my ring every day. I would definitely wear that gorgeous oval every day, and see no qualms about doing so. Something about a giant ring with a non-flashy outfit just seems to work.

I live in NorCal. My current is a 3+ ct three-stone. My eventual upgrade/addition will be a 2.5-3 ct. OEC, either mined or lab. This is my sweet spot. I definitely consider my environment and circle. Really, anything larger than 1.5 ct. stands out where I live. I love looking at big bling, but there’s a point that it’s too large for everyday wear, for me.
