Requisite hand shot. Forgive the color - I forgot to change my white balance settings so everything was orange, and I tried to color correct it in photoshop and...well, it looks weird. Lol.

And here is the little beauty! She is a gorgeous, sparkly 1.36 carats and was the chunkiest, fattest cushion cut I could find. She''s also considered an S2, and I took a pic that shows the reason why here. Two tiny black specks in the bottom that you absolutely cannot see unless you are using my macro lens. I love her.

Here''s the last one. I liked the green.

So ladies, here is where my quest begins again - I need to find a setting for my cushion that will look good with the band I got. (I know, should have gotten the ring setting first, but this band was SO PRETTY.) I was thinking maybe getting a custom halo setting, no diamonds on the band itsself, with baguettes on the flat sides of the girdle and rounds on the corners. Should be fairly inexpensive, too. But if anyone knows of a ring that would look good with this, let me know! I''d like it keep the price fairly low, too, so nothing over 1k (for now). If nothing springs up I can wait a month or two to save pennies for what I want.

How could you resist that band?? It''s so gorgeous and delicate! Love the cushion, and know you will find a fab setting for it that works with the band w/ no problems. Congrats on both!! (and looking forward to many more photos of the pair down the line

Love the band, it is so dainty and beautiful. Very Pretty stone!
 
beautiful band! may I ask where you found it?
 
I absolutely love the band! It has made it on my list for inspirational wedding bands. Please tell us more!

Your cushion is verey unique too. I have seen plots like it but not very often. I can''t wait to see your full upgrade.
 
ohhhhh i love your delicate little band!!!

and your stone is so beautiful i''ve never seen anything like it!! can''t wait to see it set!
 
I love your band!! And your stone is just gorgeous!!!

What a gorgeous band!!! So delicate...I love it! Your stone is really pretty too. Can''t wait to see your new set.
 
I love how feminine that band is!!! It looks wonderful on your hand.

(And your cushion isn''t too shabby herself.)
 
I love that band! I, too, would love to know where you found that wispy, lovely thing. Your cushion looks like a beauty as well. I''m interested to see the finished ring!
 
Very pretty ring!
 
Loving that band! Of course you needed to start with her. The cushion will have to find a setting to hold her own with it! What are you thinking?
 
wow, lucky girl! Beautiful new band AND upgrade?!?! I can see why you would be so excited! They''re both so pretty.
 
I love your dianty band and what a gorgeous stone

Very pretty - the band is very pretty! Could we see that cushion stone face up? What is the carat weight of the stone?
 
I love love love the diamond band! I think it would look FABULOUS with a classic solitaire and ANOTHER BAND

I love your band. It''s so beautiful and delicate!! Of course I love your diamond too. Good luck finding a setting to match.

I agree that you should do a lovely, simple solitaire, maybe something with double claw prongs? My preference is for the elegant fluid lines of a cathedral-style setting, but not too wide, maybe 2mm max so as not to overwhelm the delicate wedding band.
 
It''s lovely!
 
gorgeous!
 
Oh Monkeypie - that band is GORGEOUS!

I love how delicate it is - yet it still has personality! And that cushion rocks! Setting search! Yay fun!

P.S. Where on earth did you find that band! (If you don''t mind sharing, that is).
