do you think they should be larger? my lovely husband picked out this setting and I love the simplicity of it, but the side bagettes are quite tiny. what do you all think? i would estimate that they are about .3 or so TCW and the center is 1.5.

thanks

I think slightly bigger and longer would look nice.
It is a beautiful ring.

Scintillating...

I could see where you would want a bit more balance, but the current setting makes your center stone look stately and quite large.

I love the proportions. It depends -- do you love the solitaire look? If so, keep it! The tinier baguettes REALLY make the center stone pop! The "hero" doesn''t blend in with the side stones... it''s the centerpiece and demands admiration and attention! I love it.

But if you like a 3-stone look, definitely bump up the side stones. Still, I really really love the way it is now.

Very pretty and stunning, too.

Hi LL!

I love your ring the way it is now- the long, lean shape of your center stone matches the side stones- they really flatter each other well. If you want to do something like a 3 stone, or if you decide you wanted to make the baguettes a little larger, I would say no matter what it will be lovely, so go for it!!! But I say it is truly gorgeous as is.

thanks all for the compliments! i love my ring(s), but sometimes when i look at my e-ring, i can''t help but think that perhaps the side stones should be a tad larger. i''m not interested in a three stone ring -- just the center and side bagettes...

This says it all. You''re just dealing with PS syndrome . . . your ring it absolutely gorgeous! I wouldn''t change the setting your husband picked out for this kind of feeling. There will always be something you kind of wish was different!

I, too, love it just the way it is. I think the smaller baguettes are perfect, and really make the ring look unique. I wouldn''t change a thing.

Your ring is amazing as is. The small baguettes really make the center stone pop! You are definitely a pricescope member, unfortunately many of us are never satisfied with our amazingly beautiful rings.

I agree...it''s stunning as is and I think adding bigger baguettes will only take away from your absolutely gorgeous center stone

I love it as is. Would love to see the side view. What size is your finger?
Are you planning on getting a band to go with it?

You could go bigger with the baggs, but if it were me I wouldn''t. I love that they are significant enough to add design to the ring, but still keep that gorgeous center stone the center of attention.
