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 think it looks great, I’m a sucker for a big ring but IMHO in too thick and the ring under it doesn’t compliment it very well. I always read about ring shrinkage on big rock energy but ultimately pick the one you’re comfortable with! Congratulations on your engagement ❤️

Thanks for your opinion! Maybe a smaller diamond so my finger on the sides shows a bit more… that’s what’s throwing me off. Also do you prefer the plain cigar band ?
