Ritani stone arrived - decision time - thoughts?

[sunshineandlemons]

The stone I ordered from Ritani has arrived- time to make a decision. The pics are next to my 2.86 Gcal 8x E VS1. Ritani is 3.67, HPHT, F VS1. Now it is decision time - price was approx $1,035 per carat. Any thoughts on how it looks? I really like it but torn - save for something a bit larger and/or better cut (although I really like the proportions on this)...? Any input appreciated - thank you!!

If you're questioning the size now, I would definitely save for something bigger.

It's beautiful, but if you're torn, then you should send it back and wait for the one that truly makes your heart sing.

I think it's gorgeous, bigger would be too much.

How do you like the cut compared with the smaller one? The size difference looks surprisingly small.

The cut looks great in person, but admittedly I thought it would look bigger - I thought the 2.86 was huge when I got it but DSS is real…

The size difference wouldn't be enough for me to put the effort into changing/upgrading from your current (gorgeous) ring TBH.

Thanks for all the great input! I was leaning towards returning and this helped confirm my thoughts - will wait til I find what I’m truly looking for.

I agree. The size difference is not that great and your ring is beautiful. Patience is a virtue!!

The new stone looked significantly greyer/darker than your current stone.
