Kim Kardashian's Ring From Kanye Is Smaller Than Her First... But By The Same Designer

Kim Kardashian's Ring From Kanye Is Smaller Than Her First... But By The Same Designer: Kim Kardashian is an engaged woman once again, and for the second time, the giant diamond ring is by Lorraine Schwartz.

Kanye West finally popped the question to Kimmy on Monday night at San Francisco's AT&T Park (yep, he used the Jumbotron and everything) with a 15-carat Lorraine Schwartz stunner. The only view we've gotten of the mega ring is via Instagram, meaning it's hard to see clearly. But one thing we know for sure: Kim downsized from her first engagement ring.

Back in 2012, Kris Humphries proposed to Kim with a 20.5-carat Lorraine Schwartz ring, comprised of a 16.21-carat rectangular-cut center stone with two 1.8-carat trapezoid stones on each side. It reportedly cost Humphries $2 million, although he supposedly got a major discount.

We all know how Kim's first marriage ended (that $2 million ring sold at Christie's for $620,000 just last week) -- does anyone think it might be a bad omen to go with another Lorraine Schwartz sparkler?

At least it's fractionally smaller. It couldn't really have gotten any bigger.

Check out the rings. Which strikes your fancy most?
