I was just interested in getting myself a 4 carat emerald cut ring but I don't want it to look too big so I was wondering if anyone could tell me, by giving examples (like the size of a thumb nail or something) how big it would be? Thanks!

For an ideal emerald-cut diamond, a 4.0 carat would be 11 by 9 mm.
Click on the link below. The page contains a chart of different carat weights in emerald-cut diamonds and their corresponding size. It'll give you both the dimensions and a drawing of the size.
As for prices. . . well, I've seen one really ugly looking 4-carat emerald-cut diamond priced at just above $6000.00 this month--it was not a good-looking stone. Of course, I've also seen an absolutely lovely 4-carat emerald-cut diamond priced in excess of $250,000.00.
Size of a diamond is only one of many things to take into account when purchasing one. Before you decide to buy a diamond, spend some time getting yourself educated--there is a lot of information on the web.
Good luck.

Is your husband a good husband? If so, why does it matter for you to get a 2 carat diamond?? I don't get our society, they put so much effort in the ring and not in the marriage. What matters most, a man that is faithful, adores you, respects you, or a huge diamond ring, but cheats on you, and tries to buy you with money?? The symbol of the ring is "no beginning no end" in the marriage; not how much bigger is my ring than so in so down the street.

about 1/3 the size of a postage stamp

4 carats would be very very big. It's about a one inch square.

It would look good on Paris Hilton, as she was chauffeured up in her Bently, but probably not you. It would likely cost over $100,000. You couldn't even afford the insurance on it unless your daddy is a doctor. Peach Pie has the size right.

About the same size as your avatar picture...pretty darn close. And it would be insanely expensive.

BIG. Too big to look good on most people.
