Hi there, happy Valentines day! What a coincidence - I'm looking to get this as well, in the size small. I think if you're getting it to wear on its own, go for the large. But as someone who loves to layer my pieces, I'd hands down go for the small, not to mention it's easier on the wallet too!
Those are both lovely on you! I just bought the large model and am so in love with it. I went with the large because I am much more likely to wear the necklace on its own rather than layer. The price jump was hard to swallow, but I thought the extra bit of presence is worth it. Even layered with other necklaces, the large doesn’t look too big at all, so this was the right choice for me.
My thoughts are go big or go home! 
If worn on its own, it looks a little small, I'll be honest. But if you are layering, it should look just fine.
no, it is most likely will be worn on its own. Will it be dainty enough for everyday? sparkle the eye-blend-in but not "look at me"
confused... so go for bigger?
Personally, I really don't think this piece needs to be very large even worn by itself. I remember seeing my boss wearing a necklace like the small one many years ago and thinking it was so nice and understated at the same time. If you're worried about the large size not being dainty enough for every day, i would go with the small size and put the extra fund towards another piece you can wear with this one or by itself.
any chance you remember how tall she was? the problem is it is all "in the scale" - i am 5'6 and look tall, so to balance the "bling" concern i have the "lost" question...
For this design, I feel it’s meant to be small. The small looks really all well cut in proportion. Dainty and classy. Once it goes big, it loses its “original” look. I’d prefer to consider other design if I want the centre stone to be larger. Just my opinion!
I had the same dilemma and ended up going with the small and it was the right choice for me personally 
. I love how dainty and understated it is and it’s so perfect for work. I have not taken it off since I bought it . Here is the pic. I am 165cm /5-5.

Hmm, I'm generally for a bigger diamond but I like the smaller size on you. It looks a little more elegant and feminine.
