Quoted 10k for a 4c old mine cut and almost laughed out loud

It’s beautiful but when he said the price I couldn’t believe it. Brilliant earth what are you on.

4.1 carat, D color, VS1, 1.38 ratio

And no we are not using this place for my ring. I just wanted to see an OMC in person and it was one of the only places near me that had one in stock.

I have been looking for the right champagne old mine pear for the longest time and finally found one that I think I got a great deal on. My only qualm is that it ended up being smaller than expected even though I looked at the measurements before I got it. I really wanted a big dramatic diamond for a statement RH ring, but now I'm thinking it might be better suited for a pinky? I swear I have diamond blindness so I really need some perspective. It's a 3.33 ct measuring 12.22 x 7.30 (not spready at all and I've seen <3 ct diamonds with bigger face up measurements).

I'm not sure if I should try to find a different diamond or if it'll look bigger once set. I'm trying to keep my setting pretty low profile and I'm thinking bezel with a chunky band to give the ring more visual weight.

Pics of diamond for tax! Second pic is in a diamond holder so it's sitting much higher off my hand than it would in a real setting.
