4.50 Carat Oval Citrine Ring in 18kt Gold Over Sterling vs 4.60 Carat Citrine Ring in 18kt Gold Over Sterling

Both rings are 18kt gold over sterling silver with citrine, so the choice comes down to shape and setting. The A ring is the better pick for everyday wear: its bezel setting protects the stone and the twisted shank is slimmer at 3/8 inch. The B ring is the statement piece, with a larger 4.60 carat rectangular cushion-cut stone on a wider 1/2 inch band. Owners of the A ring rate it 4.9 out of 5, and B buyers praise the stone size for the money.

• Choose the oval citrine ring if you want a lower-profile bezel setting that guards the stone and a slimmer band for daily wear.
• Choose the cushion-cut citrine ring if you want a bigger, bolder stone and a wide band that reads as a statement piece.
