Show me your .70 to .71 carat princess stones with sidestones

[princessplease]

I am getting a .70 carat princess cut diamond for my e-ring with some sidestones, and I was wondering if people could post their diamonds of this size for me to see, or link me to posts with these specs. Thanks!

Wow, .70-.71, that''s specific!

You know, what will impact the perceived size even more than the ct. weight down to a .01 variance is the size of the ring. A .70 will look bigger on a size 4 than a size 7, etc.

Hopefully you''ll get some responses, but just know that if you don''t it''s because of the specificity of the request, not because people don''t want to help

I know it's specific, I just was wondering if anyone had princess cuts of this size because this is what I will have...or at least pictures of princess stones of this size. Thanks for your reply musey.

Yes, my point was that .70-.71 is unnecessarily specific. I should have articulated that better. If someone posts a picture of a .60ct princess or a .80ct princess on a similar ring size, you will still be getting a ballpark idea. On the other hand, if someone posts a picture of their .70ct princess on a bigger or smaller finger size, youll be getting a wholly inaccurate picture of what to 'expect.'

Point being that while there are lots of people on PS, there aren't so many active posters that you'll be able to get a bunch of pictures of specifically .70-.71 princesses (especially because they're not as common around here as rounds and even emeralds). I was just suggesting that if you broaden your expectations, you'll likely get more responses.

At the same time though, we often encourage people against looking for pictures of what they're getting, because (a) it will look totally different on someone else's hand, in a different setting, in pictures than it will look on your hand, in your setting, in real life; and (b) because if that's what you're getting for sure, you run the risk of psyching yourself out of it if you don't like what you see in pictures -OR- setting up unrealistic expectations.


All that said, here is the Under 1ct Diamonds thread for you to browse through!

Thanks for posting the pics Tuckins. Beautiful ring!!!

My point in the post was to gauge how they look set...WF is still making mine, and I won''t know what it looks like set until they send the cad design. I was curious to see how that size princess looks in settings.
I''ve only seen my diamond loose, and I know sizes will look different on different fingers and rings, but I really wanted to see some set just to see how they look set.
Off to the under 1ct thread. Thanks.
