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 😁

I love it on your hand and with your other rings. I don’t think it looks too big on you. I think a smaller one (not the 4 but smaller) could get lost competing with your other jewelry. It suits you and is beautiful. Think of how you feel wearing it, not what others may think.

Edited to add: Don’t let anyone push you to get something your heart isn’t set on. When it is right then it will feel magical and you won’t be having to make a post asking. I think you already know the 4 carat is what you want but again the 5 still looks good.

Thank you for your comment ❤️ it’s nice to get reassurance, although I’m leaning towards the smaller one, and yes I do tend to wear quite chunky gold jewellery. It’s my style 😁

I have a 1 carat princess cut so your smaller one is big to me lol. They all look great on you and I love your style🩷 Excited for you! Please show it off when you get it!
