Hi all! Yesterday I asked for options on a slightly elongated oval HERE.

The consensus was that the cut is stunning and overall, it’s a great pick.

Because I (apparently) hate myself lol, I asked my jeweler for another diamond that was less elongated for comparison. I plan to give her a decision tonight but wanted some thoughts on this diamond as well.

It’s only ever so slightly less elongated measuring 2.56 carats at 11.31 x 7.53 x 4.76 MM. It is E color as well. And again, I am very tall with slender hands and wear a 5.25 ring.

I think I love the cut of the last one better, as it sparkles more. And one does have a slightly more noticeable bow tie I think? BUT I do think I like the ratio a tiny bit better.

If you have to choose, which one would you choose?

I am working with my jeweler on my engagement ring and this is the first diamond they offered me. My only request was 2.5 carat with D/E color. I wear a size 5.25 ring, so I do have slimmer hands.

This oval is 2.55 carats but has a ratio of 1:6. The dimensions are 11.91 X 7.44 X 4.47 MM

I loved it at first but then I got in my head once I studied the dimensions. I think I’m worried it looks more like a 3 carat or a moval? Any thoughts?
