    My ring has 3 bands, One is a 1.57ct princess cut with 3/4 diamonds on the band and some diamonds on the setting and the other 2 bands are 3/4 about .5ct each so equals to about 3.5cts. I absolutely LOVE my ring and thought it was a pretty big size. I'm a petite girl..only 5'2" and lately I've noticed a lot of girls e-rings and their rocks looks HUGE... I thought wearing all my 3 rings together was too bulky for me and now i wear the 2 bands on my right ring finger and the my solitaire princess on my left.

    I was just curious to see what the average size ct every state has.

    How many cts and state are you from?

    I don't think it really has anything to do with states, or cities for that matter.

    I live in New York City and my ring is 0.80 carats ;oP

    Is it blasphemy that I don't even know how many carats my ring is?

    @MissAsB: I hope not, because I definitely have no idea! I got it insured, shoved the paperwork in the safe and forgot!

    Missasb- thats so funny! but that shows that it doesnt even matter to you.. you just love it and should def be like that.

    But last week I was someone down southern of new jersey and this lady has a HUGEEE rock and I said my goodness thats a beautiful and HUGE ring and she goes... oh it's not that big... this is my smallest one which is a 6ct... I thought i was going to faint after hearing that... then she goes... yeah my biggest one is a 10ct.... I was just lost in words.... hahaa...

    I'm 1.5 CT total weight. From Las Vegas, NV. When I worked closer to the strip (where casinos are) I always saw the ladies rocking the 3 cts and up. Now that I work further away its about 1-2 ct.

    bvig    September 2009   wedding in NJ

    We did the non-traditional engagement ring, but I'm from MD, we live in PA but my hub is from NJ and just from observation (seen and heard from people) size seems to matter a lot more in NJ than in MD or PA.

    @Corgi- mine is similar to yours except mine is a 1.01 ct Princess Cut Solitare + pave diamonds on the band!

    I'm not sure what my TW of the pave band is b/c mine is a little different w/ diamonds on all 3 sides of the band.

    @TobeMrsBear: Her smallest ws 6 carats?  Geez, I would rather spend my money on a vacation or other experiences that having a huge rock on my finger!

    I like my rings because they are sparkly not huge!  I would be too afraid to wear a really big ring.  I would think it would make me a target for being mugged or carjacked.

    @missasb: I won't have any idea either because it's all up to him to choose.  I think he's looking at around a 6 mm - 8 mm stone (1 or 2 ctw) of the gemstone. and who knows how many diamonds or if it will have diamonds at all???

    eta I'm in Louisiana.  At home (TN/Northern MS) it's larger my old ring was 2.16 ctw and we were looking at bands that were about 1/2 ctw or more..
