I messed up and I feel bad
Hi guys,
I’ve posted here before regarding my experience with my jeweler. I am having a problem now that the CAD has been made and a mock up has been made. Originally for a 4.2 oval stone, I was advised to have 1.5 side tear drop stones. We went back and forth and they ordered a 1 carat and a .75 to see if I would like it more. I picked .75 and I asked if it would flare out bc I am a size 6. ChatGPT has also said .75 should be good. I get the CAD file and the side stones still look too big.
Size 6 feels a little too tight on me so I am going up to a 6.25.
Now for the ring, I went to try it on, and this is how it looks like. I am frustrated bc I kept reinforcing that I don’t want the side stones to touch the sides of my fingers and I don’t want it to flare out. And here we are now. I saw it in person and I sadly I now think I made the wrong choice with a .75 side stone size (each is .75) and also my bf also noticed that the stones flare out and it does not look like what we originally showed them.
We gave some feedback, going up a ring size by .25, and if it’s possible to make it more straight instead of curved but I don’t think this will work due to the side stones. We have been already told that finding certified .75 stones was hard. And I don’t even think they will be able to find certified smaller stones. I don’t know what to do, Im so stressed, I feel like I keep getting told is okay, but it’s not. And I am frustrated with myself for not speaking up more.
Picture 1-3 is the ring today Picture 4-5 is the ring we showed them to make, that ring I believe has a 2 carat center stone
