I am looking to buy a ring for my girl and I have been on the Blue Nile website.
I have been looking at the Petite Milgrain Diamond Engagement Ring setting with a princess cut diamond. I have been looking at princess diamonds a little under a carat. I am worried that the ring may look a little small on her finger. She is 5’10” and is a volleyball player. I want the ring to really sparkle and look good on her. Any suggestions would be appreciated. My budget is around $4,000.00.
Thank you.
For this type of a pave setting, we recommend I+ colored diamonds.
Here are my recommendations:
Blue Nile LD09983219
Blue Nile LD00312784
Both these diamonds are perfectly cut, eye-clean and brilliant. The 0.94ct stone is slightly bigger than the 0.95ct one (see the actual measurements).
How do you think they would compare to the diamond I picked below. Alternatively how do you think this ring Will look on my girlfriend? she is 5 10 and athletic. I don’t want it to look too small.
The size is a matter of personal taste. However, if you’re looking for the biggest diamond, I’d stick with the 0.94ct one (see the actual measurements). It’s even slightly bigger than the stone you found.
Do you think it will look good on her finger or too petite?
A 0.94ct should look fantastic.
I will go with this diamond.
