Alright, so in our first (and so far only) internet ring search, my boyfriend was gravitating towards diamonds in the .2xx range. Now I know everything is pretty skewed on this site with most of the new engagements seeming to be rocking it out above 1ct, but I''m wondering what a center stone of that size would look like - I want a round solitaire, maybe with colored accents, so nothing terribly complex.
I went through the "small" diamond thread, but that definition of small was under 1ct, with most of them still above a half carat - definitely not small to me! Also, I wear a size 6 which is what I thought was pretty average but is apparently man-sausage fingers, the only under .5ct rings I saw in that thread were from ladies who were smaller than a size 5 so I doubt it''d be a very accurate approximation for me.
I also must admit that my boyfriend may just have a really crazy idea of what carat sizes are, I admit I have a hard time picturing them myself, so he may have no idea of relative sizes. However, I also don''t want to be the girl demanding a larger stone than he''s comfortable with... yeah I''m not too sure where I''m going with this. There''s no rush in pictures, engagement isn''t happening for another 8-16 months, but the final ring discussions may be sooner than that so I''m just curious.
