I was hoping not to see the finished product until our engagement but he let it slip. I will post more pictures after the engagement when I actually get to wear it!
Center stone: 1.72 carat cushion cut (dimensions: 7.69x6.49x4.50); G Color, SI1 Clarity
The halo is comprised of 78 round brilliants weighing in at .85 carats (don't have specs for color or clarity on those)
Platinum split shank[quote/]
Oh that is just gorgeous ewozobski! You must be dying to get this on your finger! I hope you're not disappointed that you've seen the ring prior to the engagement - but I personally think having a pic to look at makes the waiting easier lol! Please come back with pics after you get it!

I'm not disappointed that I've seen it because I pretty much knew what it was going to be anyway. He took me to the jeweler with him when he purchased the ring... He let me pick out a few things I liked and then kicked me out while he designed the final product. Even though I've seen a picture of it I'm sure I will be wowed when I see it for the first time in person.
I think the proposal will happen the weekend of October 19/20. We're a long distance couple and I am going out to Los Angeles to see him while I have a week off from school (getting my doctorate in physical therapy). I'll be sure to post more after it happens!
Yes I've had complaints about the ring being "too flashy", "too big", "or why didn't I get a round brilliant like everybody else".
I love the way cushions look on my long slender fingers vs a round brilliant. Plus I love the finger coverage. =D
Honestly, I would never ask my FI to return it for a smaller rock or anything else just to satisfy other people. This is what my FI picked. I love the ring. I already know that no matter what there are going to be haters.
Thank you for the nice compliments!! I forget all the negativity when I look at my ring and watch it dance magically under the lights.
PS. I don't know how to start my own thread hahaha
