Why are small engagement rings better?

There are a number of reasons why some people may feel that small engagement rings are better than large ones. Cost is one consideration, as smaller gemstones are typically available for a lower price, and if you opt for a smaller diamond, you may be able to afford one with higher clarity and color ratings. Some individuals prefer small rings because they're less likely to get in the way of activities or simply because they prefer more understated jewelry.
