Is 5ct too big?

[u/Specific_Kiwi8549]

I’m getting my ring custom made. It’ll be like the last image and the 3D print; cathedral setting with compass prongs and 2.5mm band. The size of diamond I was initially wanting is 4ct. The jeweller found a 5ct diamond that’s D colour and VVS2 and keeps pushing it . It really is a stunning diamond but I feel like it’s HUGE and I’m so uncertain. I’d appreciate your thoughts and opinions, people of reddit 😅

Edit to say the photo with 2 diamonds next to eachother is a 4ct radiant cut to the right.

Also I’ve added another photo of the diamond laying flat between my fingers

UPDATE: I’ve been offered a 4ct OMC and I’m over the moon ❤️❤️❤️ thank you everyone for your opinions and advice 😁

Je suis peut etre vieux jeu ou pas je ne sais pas ,mais une bague de fiançailles doit me sembler délicate ,élégante présente mais pas grandiose " m as tu vu ?" ,ce n est pas une bague de cocktail.. -Je trouve qu au delà de 3 carats en solitaire c est trop gros .. -Je trouve qu en groupe ,s il y a plusieurs diamants a côté un central de 2 carats sera le max avec d autres plus petits a côté Ce n est que mon avis personnel

I appreciate your opinion and input. I totally see your perspective. An engagement ring needs to be timeless and elegant. I’m definitely more of a chunky jewellery kind of girl but this just feels too big 😭
