Browsing Blue Nile, I found a Recently Purchased 7.08 carat E-ring

WHOA. Honestly? I think it's gauche. I'd rather have a few beautiful pieces than wear that. Most people I know would think it was fake anyway!

This.

No such thing as a diamond that's too big! That's like something being too chocolatey or too garlicky ... NEVER!

I think everyone woman would love to have a 7 ct. e-ring, but I agree that it may be too big where people will think it's fake given that we are not celebrities. Also, I don't know if I can wear it on a daily basis. I guess I'm just being practical.

i think i'd love to try it on, just to see what a diamond that size looks like on my itty-bitty hands. I don't think any of the jewelry shops here carry anything that size.

I personally don't like any diamond where i can see a distinct difference in the facets no matter what the size (except an emerald cut) if i'm explaining that right. Like a bowtie in a stone, it drives me crazy. So because the sides of that stone look so different than the top and bottom sections i don't like it. I would have much preferred it cut as an emerald, cushion or cut as a modified brilliant radiant.

I'm more shocked that someone would spend that much on an online diamond purchase!

Completely agree! I would take that money straight to Harry Winston and get the best i could for the price. Even if it was a 1 carat, i'm much more that girl.

Crazy amount to spend online for a diamond with si2 clarity... Too much of a risk for my blood to buy unseen.

After seeing this post, I checked out some of the other recently purchased rings on Blue Nile and there are some 4ct and 5ct Rounds purchased for up to 150k. I can't imagine spending 150k at blue nile, sight unseen.

If it was from the right man, I certainly wouldn't turn it down!

Too big??!! Is that possible? Perfection, but I'm an April baby so we love our diamond's!

 

[akimoto]

Not too big! I would love to keep that in my safe

Too big for everyday wear thou..

 

[msspooky09]

Nevermind "is it too big", but who puts a $95k stone in a $425 setting? i'd be more terrified that it'd fall out! If you could spring for that much for the stone, I'd think you'd spend a bit extra on a REALLY nice setting that is going to put your mind at ease regarding its safety!

I noticed that on this ring too, I don't care for it. A diamond can't be too big imho.
