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 - I have no idea either. I know it's a size 4.25...but no idea how many carats!
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.
Mine is a 1.01 ct cushion cut solitaire + pave diamonds on the band... I think its like 1.2 tw or something?
I live in Ohio
I'm in Philly - My center stone is 1.25 carat princess cut, and the other stones on the band make the total carat weight of my ring 1.75
2ct solitaire... it's probably more like 1.90 or something? I do have big fingers though. and.. I'm from Charleston, SC :)
.9 ct center stone, something like 1.2 or 1.3 tcw. I live in Indiana.
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.
I live in Dallas, TX
@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.
bvig- yes unfortunately size does matter alot in jersey.. i would say ny too! It's like they sit there and talk about their rings... how big and flawless it is... Sad... but... oh well.. thats how some women are... whatever floats their boats.....
1.75 princess center w/ .25 trillion on each side. Oregon!
@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.
0.75 center stone with ~0.5 carats of little stones in the band
From TX.
@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..
@Missasb - I agree. Everytime I'm out walking alone i always have to turn my ring upside down...
I was like, "My ring size is a 6.25 and I'm from California"... then I read on :p I'm glad Amanda Lynn was clueless with me!
I am from Eastern MA (boston area) and my ring is a solitaire diamond, size: a little over 1/2 carat (not exactly sure what it is though)
Mine is 1.5 center, 1.8 something total weight with all the teeny side stones(there's 18 itty bitty ones!). I'm from CA.
mine is 2.8ct center stone (cushion). it has a pave halo and pave on the band but i'm not sure what the total weight is. And i'm from California.
@meowkers-- i have a serious thing for cushion cuts! you should post yours somewhere :)
I'm from Tennessee, live in Atlanta, and I have no idea what size my ring is.
I'm going to go find out, dang it!
Im Live in CA my ring is round cut with this pave band. Total weight is 3.0 I believe.
That was supposed to be a thin pave band, and I live in CA. I cant type today!
I have a 1.10 ct sapphire and 0.3 ct side stone e-ring, and I'm from CA. This thread makes me giggle! It's like an icebreaker game for engaged ladies!

I'm from Atlanta, live in Lexington and... I don't have a ring. Sorry, I just wanted to play :(
I don't know mine either! I know my first e=ring (from same FI LOL) was a 1.1 princess cut solitaire. I'm not sure what my current ring is - Around 1 carat total?
I'm in VA...
