    So every once in awhile I like to look at Blue Nile for the recently purchased rings...geez...some purchased a 5.25 round brilliant for like 88K!!  Wonder if she'll join the bee...I'd love to see what that looks like on the hand...

     

    Now I have small diamond syndrome...

    @MamaMegs721:  I'm just surprised the setting is so simple. I showed to to my FI and he said "well if you do a setting with more diamonds then its just obnoxious." Then?

    what's wrong with rockin a huge rock? If you want to spend your money on things like that and you can afford to do so, more power to ya!

    @mama- yess! i'd love to see that bling on an actual hand!

    I would love to see that ring on someone's hand!  Even though it's an I color, I'll bet it looks pretty white since the cut is Ideal.  Kinda wonder about the clarity though as it's an SI1.  I would almos rather have that other recently purchased round for 138K that is 3.41 carats but with an E color and VS1 clarity!  I'm sure both rings are stunning.

    A family friend of ours has a 12 ct emerald cut diamond ring.  Her husband is on Forbes richest so no surprise really BUT when I saw this ring I was in shock she even let me try it on!! I used to have a pic on my phone but not anymore... Let me see if I can find it in my email somewhere... *off to search*

    I didn't know you could search for recently sold rings on there...how do you do it?  That sounds like fun!

    Maybe I'm biased but I don't thing a ring get too big until 10ct or so

    I think it's gorgeous!

    Personally, I think less than 5ct. is best for an ering, but I would never turn that ring down if it was presented to me as one! I do think it's better off as a RHR, but then what would be the point because it would dwarf the ering on the other hand...

    That's where I found my dream wedding band.  It doesn't cost that much, but it's handgraved and beautiful.  Sigh..

    Maybe this is just me, but something just feels weird about spending ~90K on the internet... at once. Again, maybe that's just me.

    @mwitter80:  Haha I have to say, I agree with you to a certain extent!! Gotta love bling!

    When I was trying on e-rings (and eventually decided to design my own), I tried on a 6 ct cushion cut solitaire, perfect specs. It was gorgeous, but definitely not too large or cumbersome. Too each his/her own, I suppose!!!
