This is a really pretty ring and definitely a good buy since we only wanted gold (versus sterling). But it is a good thing we bought this ring (1/5 cttw) instead of the even smaller rings we also considered. I would not have liked anything any smaller than this - the diamonds are pretty tiny. That being said though - the weight of the ring and the thickness of the band are nice and we are happy with the purchase. I also liked that it came in the size we wanted so no need to have it re-sized.
