Hello PS'ers. After much research and debate I've decided on this Brellia Cushion (see link, 1.09 I VS2) and after exploring several options for the setting, I feel that the Petite Torchiere with diamonds on the crown will work beautifully with this stone.
I explored the option of the Fancy Torchiere, but imo it loses the fluidness of the platinum work on the shank, especially the pinch before the crown which I love. I inquired with Stephanie at GOG (btw working with her and Jon has been a top notch experience) if there is a version of Petite Torchiere that maintains the pinch at the shank with side diamonds, and apparently it has been done as a custom request and can be once more.
I have been going back and forth between the 2, and my significant other has no idea as this is a surprise for her and therefore I have no idea what type of setting she prefers. I've attached some photos and provided some links. Looking for feedback, suggestions, opinions, and anything to help with my indecisiveness!!

I think you are familiar with the Petite Torchiere if you are interested in my post, but if not find it on Mark Morrell's website:
