I'm finally getting around to posting on SMTB! with pictures of my engagement ring. It's a 2.01 carat, H color, SI1 modified brilliant cushion. We set it in a Mark Patterson 3-sided halo - I fell in love the first time I saw it last summer and just couldn't get it out of my head! My ring size is 5.5.

I had the privilege of working with Ken Lewin at Marshall Pierce in Chicago, and he was wonderful! It was a great purchasing experience, and I would highly recommend them to anyone.

I have a bunch of pictures - I hope you enjoy!

ETA: Oh! Here is a link to my engagement story over in LIW.

Thank you so much motownmama, bright ice, DvotedMOMMY, B.E.G., Trekkie, Tuckins1, oranges, yennyfire, Cashette, sandyandisaac, CurlySue, piratefan, geckodani, STEPHANSON, cushioncutnut, risingsun, diamondseeker2006, legra, gemgirl, and Laila619. I've seen so many BEAUTIFUL rings here on PS since I joined last summer that I love that I'm able to share my own sparkly!

The ring measures 7.38 x 7.20 x 4.90. Depth 68.1%, Table 60%.

I'm just totally in love. I keep getting caught sneaking peeks in public. :bigsmile:

I love your ring, and that is without a doubt my favorite cushion that I've ver seen. I love the proportions & the cut. It is stunning.

I don't usually fall in love with cushions or halos but there is something just PERFECT about the proportion of this ring. Love, love, love it! Congratulations on your engagement.
