Native speaker please help with one sentence

Could you please tell me if there is anything wrong with this sentence? I read it online. Is it natural?

- The size of your wife's engagement ring says a lot about who she's married to. A man who would dare buy his wife a diamond so big wants it to speak for itself. (does this all mean anything and is it natural?)

Thank you

Ok but if it weren't online, how would I say this properly? Is the underlined bit grammatical?

The size of your wife's engagement ring says a lot about who she's married to. A man who would dare buy his wife a diamond so big wants it to speak for itself.

Can X (as in the diamond ring) speak for itself?

Thank you
