I will also include the links to the stones.

I am thinking of this setting http://www.ritani.com/engagement-rings/halo-french-set-diamond-engagement-ring-in-palladium/4774

Finding a good cushion has been more challenging that I thought. Should we keep looking? Thanks

My tastes may not be the same as yours.

I don't like the shape that Brellias have; they are not the typical soft cushion shape, they are more like squares with smoothed off corners and slightly rounded edges. They are also more contrast-y. You can see that in the first lighting environment, but it is really obvious in the window videos that Jon does. I wouldn't trouble them for an ASET because they all look the same, but a window video would be great.

The I also seems to have more randomized scintillation to me, while the Brellias have more of a predictable, organized action.

It is really up to your preferences, all 3 are beautiful.

If you wanted to keep looking, what are you looking for? The cut on these is the tops.
