For me it would depend on whether or not the price mattered...if money is no object I'd go for the diamond, because, well, it's a diamond! Dh bought me a silver mini bean for Christmas and I love it. We were at Tiffany last month getting ideas for Mother's Day presents and I tried on the .14 platinum DBTY. While it was pretty, I felt the diamond was just so so tiny for the $1000 I'd be paying for it. For me, I felt my mini bean (for only $150) served the same purpose...something small, pretty, shiny, classic that I could wear with a black dress to a wedding or everyday with tshirt and jeans. I actually thought my bean had more "impact" than the tiny dbty. Now, just to try, the sales lady gave me a dbty that was about .40...now that one was definitely very WOW...but it was over $3k so not in the budget this time.

I think it depends on what you are going for. I have a DBTY (but aquamarine) and it is very delicate and you can't see it if I am wearing a button up or something. Most of the time I wear a more substantial pendant instead (like the bean) so it shows up more.

I have spent the last months circling around the bean and I am so glad I bought it! gold, 16mm.

I also love how delicate the necklace is. And the perfect shape of the bean. It is a great design--piece and everyone notices it. Its my everyday-necklace.
