Hey folks,
I have to tell my boyfriend what I want very soon! It's all very exciting and have been fun looking at various rings/diamonds/vendors. I love cushion cuts, but after going to some B and M and taking a look in person, I realized I love the chunkier cuts better. Basically, I've fallen in love with antique cushions.
Actually, I absolutely love this ring: http://jewelsbyericagrace.smugmug.com/Jewelry/Rings-Antique-diamonds/187ct-Antique-Cushion-Diamond/15993539_NXaJs#1199716062_efH6Z
I'm hoping it's still available when he's ready to buy!
But, anyways, there is a good chance it won't be available and the bf seems to be partial towards solitaires. I've been looking at GOG and ERD. GOG seems a bit on the pricier end. Looking at some of the other posts, I came across Old World Diamonds. I found some old cushions that are well within his price range that are absolutely stunning (at least in the picture) and was starting to lean towards maybe getting a loose stone from them and having JBEG set the ring. Have any of you guys worked with Old World Diamond? I'm a little worried about not being able to see the diamond in person. Do you guys have any recommendations for choosing diamonds online?

This is one I liked (according to the picture) that i came across that was within budget. I like cushions that are more square-ish and more on the white side (like G, H, I).
Thanks!!
