My new, old cut diamond

And then next to my G colored diamond to compare.

I love this pic!

Your rings are both positively beautiful. Your cushion has a beautiful shape, looks stunning on your hand.

I love the color as well. Looks rich, enchanting, and beautiful.

What are the measurements of this beauty? I’ll be honest, the S-T color isn’t nearly as bad as I thought. It looks gorgeous! Plus, there’s something so romantic about those low colored diamonds.

Thanks! And yes, I was pleasantly surprised by the S-T as well.
It is 9.48 x 8.43 x 5.88mm

The faceting is just gorgeous on this stone! A true antique beauty- congratulations!

Gorgeous!!! Such a classic and elegant piece. I love the colour of antique lace in diamonds

Well, it was tough to decide between this or HULK. The green glow was fascinating on the other stone and the faceting was gorgeous. In the end, I wanted a different shape diamond than I already had and the clarity was impressive.

Not sure. It's going to stay a solitaire for at least a couple years. I do like how it looks on it's own. If I did change the setting, I'd maybe do a 3 stone. Either keep it simple and traditional with tapered baguettes/half moons/traps...or maybe do color diamonds on side to contrast? (Yellow or brown?)

Or maybe even have a jacket made so I could wear it on it's own or with more. I do really like the look as a solitaire. Nothing else to detract or distract from the stone itself.

Ooooooh, I love the idea of a jacket! Maybe you could do a jacket with step-cut half moons....there's a well-known Instagrammer (I forget her name) who has a large antique cushion with step-cut half moons and I do a double-take every time because it's so eye-catching and unusual and elegant.

This is beautiful and, like you said, the color is so romantic. Love a warm, old cut stone.

Oh! If you remember who it is, let me know so I can check it out...

Easy to see why you couldn’t deny this beauty! It’s just stunning! I also love the champagne-y appearance it takes on!
