How many of you have imagined this scenario … You’re sitting at lunch with a high school friend you just happened to run into after 15 years. You’re both chatting and having a good time catching up. In the midst of conversation, you oh so graciously move your hand to brush the hair away from your eyes when suddenly, the sunlight catches the brilliance for your massively huge diamond ring and the flash from your enormous diamond blinds your friend semi-permanently! And of course, the server comes over to your table to not only check on your friend, but to comment your gorgeous and massively huge diamond ring.
While many of us dream of owning that big beautiful rock to flash around, the best flash (and bang for your buck) can be had in a smaller stone. Dare I say it? Yes, a smaller diamond can prove to be not only a better buy, but the smart choice.
The price of a diamond goes up proportionally according to the size/weight (carat). While many of us want to be able to boast that our diamond is at least a carat, you may be able to save hundreds of dollars by coming short of that perfect carat size. In other words, rather than buying that one-carat ring, go for a 0.95 carat stone, or a 2.44 rather than a 2.5 carat ring. The difference in size will not be discernable, but your bank will surely take notice.
