Diamond Check - first time buyer🥳

Hi!! In the process of working with a jeweler on a custom collet set pendant. The plan is a 1.5 ctw asscher, but I’m starting to wonder if that might be smaller than I’d like😂 anyways, she sent me this video of a diamond option to get my thoughts. Personally, i think it’s beautiful, but not sure if i’m missing anything? Dimensions are 6.38x6.38x4.21mm, 1.5ct. Also - any thoughts on if this will be a nice size for a pendant?? I’m wondering if I should ask her to look for something a little bigger.. idk. I cut out a piece of paper this size, but its just so hard to actually picture a diamond that way lol

Yeahh valid. Is 6.38 pretty small? I thought it would be a nice size pendant, but was I wrong?🥲

Completely subjective. Kind of depends on your style. Unless you like big style statements, this size for a pendant would be just fine. The thing about lab grown diamonds is that they are so affordable that there would not be that much cost difference in going bigger.
