I’ve been married almost 12 years and been wearing a ring passed down to me by my grandmother. It’s a beautiful 2 carat stone with baguettes.
We talked about one day getting something new. I’m ready for an upgrade and trying to decide what to do. I imagined one day banging out with a 3 carat diamond but truth be told, I have small hands and live a casual lifestyle and I think the 3 carat stone would just look like too much. SO, my choice now is switch my 2 carat stone to a setting I selected which I LOVE, or switch to that setting with a diamond slightly larger, let’s say 2.5-2.7. I’m not sure it’s worth the money it would cost to upgrade to a whole new diamond, vs JUST getting the setting and using the diamond I already own.
I appreciate all thoughts! This is a picture of the setting, with a different diamond that’s 2.5 carats.
