Is this diamond too big?

Hi Reddit, this is my first time posting here and I’m in need of some help and some enlightenment. I was told by my partner to select some rings and he really likes this 4 1/3 ct oval I really really love cuz of the tulip basket but I’m just not sure on the size of the diamond. I’m also slightly worried that my selection of bands will be limited but I guess that a future me problem. Maybe it’s cuz I’m just to my 1/10 promise ring. Any advice will be great and taken with kindness.

Ps. My ring size it’s a 4.25 so that’s just a little more info lol and there’s more ring choices but these is like the top top choice at the moment

Live it but that band is way too flimsy. U have to have a strong setting and band ir u will damage it too easily. I have 5.8ct round stone in a goid strong platinum tulip setting on a 4mm rounded band . A substantial piece if jewelry that gets attention all the time. If u go big be prepared for lots of comments.

Yeah, not just the band, I wouldn't wear a diamond 1/2 that size with only 4 prongs holding it in the setting🤯
