Hey PS Folks,

I''ve been a lurker on these forums for quite some time now. You all have been VERY helpful with regards to purchasing that perfect e-ring. Thanks to you, I was pointed in the direction of Mark T (from ERD) for all things cushion! I just want to say how great a guy Mark is. He''s very patient and attentive. Most importantly, he listens to his clients. I''ve visited stores where I''ll tell them what I''m looking for, only for my words to be quickly disregarded, and then being pushed towards something they''d like to sell.

From my first conversation with Mark, he listened very intently. He also manages to remember everything I say from our previous meetings -- which I give him a lot of credit for considering the enormous amount of clients he must go through daily. Now for what I know all of you are eagerly waiting for, the specs and pics. I haven''t proposed to my girlfriend yet, though I''m planning to do it in the coming weeks.

Cut: Cushion
Carat: 1.84ct
Clarity: VS2
Color: G
Polish: G
Sym: G
Cutlet: None
Depth: 66.2
Table: 57
Dimensions: 7.45 x 6.8 x 4.5

Last pic. I had to snap these photos secretly since my girlfriend and I currently live together. She came home right after I finished uploading these pictures onto my computer!

Dear lord that ring is delicious! It looks perfectly proportioned!

If you don''t mind me asking, what are the size of the melee, and what is the width of the band?

She is going to love it. And great job on picking out such a winner! Please post more pics and also let us know about the engagement!

Thanks for all the great comments everyone! I was drooling over the ring when I finally saw the finished product, but it''s always good to know that it''s not just from my own biased view

I haven''t exactly come up with that "perfect proposal" yet but I''ll definitely post back here after I do (hopefully with good news).

Hmm, I just know (according to the appraisal) that there''s a total of 46 round diamonds totaling .38ct on the band. Though admittedly, I can''t see how the band can possibly fit 46 of them.

The ring is a size 5 ... if that''s what you meant by width -- sorry I''m still fairly new to all the terminology!

Absolutely mega-droolworthy!!!

Is the setting one of Mark''s designs, or another brand?

The width of the band is usually measured in mm; this looks very delicate so maybe 2- 3mm???

Just beautiful!!!! You really did well. Congratulations!!!

Thanks!!

Yup, the setting is one of Mark''s designs. It''s the "Stephanie" setting, if you''re familiar with his site.

Ahhh, now I know what the width is. It is pretty delicate and I would say ~2-3mm sounds about right.

Very beautiful!!!!

So the setting was custom?

My advice is to think of somewhere special to take her VERY soon! I would be very mad to think something that beautiful was hidden for weeks before I could have it!

Hi Deags - thanks for answering my question! As for the width, I meant (from the top view) how thick the band is in mm - how much finger space does it take up from one edge of the band to the other (i.e. 2 mm etc.). I hope that makes sense

Can''t wait for your proposal story and hand shots!
