How many carats is your engagement ring?

    Mine is 1 Carat total. I love it, but I would have been happy with something different (no diamond) also!

    Mine is .90 carats total weight, with .70 carats in the center stone, and teeny diamonds around the band. My wedding band is an eternity band with slightly larger diamonds but I'm not sure the total weight - maybe .25? From time to time I wish it was a tad bigger, but I really love it and it is perfect for me. I have tiny hands - size 4 - and it is crazy sparkly, so it looks great on my finger. I doubt I will ever upgrade!

    A little over 1 carat center stone with a little under 1 carat pave eternity setting. I asked him not to get something too big because 1) I have really small hands, and I thought a large stone would just be overwhelming and 2) I work in a lab, so my gloves have to fit over it.

    I can't remember, but the whole setting is close to 1.5ctw. I wish you could all post photos with your responses here!

    The total weight is a 2.18, with the center stone being a old european cut diamond (heirloomed from his grandma) weighing 1.32 carats, and the side stones and ones around the band weighing .86 carats. I love the fact that its an heirloom and has history behind it.

    I have a tiffany setting 1.82 carat. Then I have two small, slim wedding bands on either side. I love it!!!!

    I have a round brilliant diamond that is just over 2 carats (I think it's 2.1) and a pave halo setting that probably adds up to at least 1 carat of additional diamonds if not 1.5. I originally had a six prong solitaire setting with no detail and I picked out this new setting about a year ago.

    @moderndaisy: Man...I would love to see your ring. Do you have any pics of it anywhere? Mine is a round solitaire on a very simple 6-prong setting likes yours and I'd love to get it set on a halo setting!

    0. I'm not much of a ring person and hubby couldn't figure out what to do so he finally just proposed.

    @ModernDaisy and @ Banana: Ditto! I have a six-prong round solitaire on a half-eternity band (the center stone is just over 2 carats) which I love, but I still drool over halo settings. My wedding band is another half-eternity band.

    I would love to see some of these big, beautiful solitaires in person!! I bet they are all so beautiful (solitaire or not, big or small)

    I have a 1 carat solitaire with a 3/4 eternity band with milgrain edging and some additional detail besides just a plain eternity.
