Hi All! My fiance is having a very difficult time finding a Cushion that meets all of our specs, and since I am not willing to budge on size or color, I would like to see if I can change the ratio and still be pleased with the outcome. Originally I was deadset on a squareish cushion, but I have since seen some very pretty more rectangular cushions, and would like to see some pics...please post pics diamond specs and ratio info, oh, and ring size just to provide a little finger coverage perspective :)

Thank you soooo much!! This will be very helpful!!
 
Bump...Bump....Nothing?? I know I have seen some more rectangular beauties out there? I am just having a hard time finding them on the new website. Please help me visualize. Thanks!
 
Here is mine - it's very elongated - the ratio is 1.26. I originally wanted to stay around 1.15 but ultimately chose this one.
Hope that helps!

Hi Red, thank you...do you mind me asking what carat size your ring is, and your finger size? Your ring is beautiful! Thank you for sharing!
 
Hi TruLuv,

Here are the specs. I wear a size 5.5. I think this particular cushion appears larger than its weight. I was debating between this one and another that was 1.63 carats, which seemed much smaller. I went with this one because it is a cushion brilliant which i preferred over a modified brilliant. But the 1.63 had a ratio of 1.14 and a nice fuller shape. Have you been viewing the diamonds in person? Like many on this forum advise - it's really the best way when searching for a cushion. Let me know if I can answer any other questions.

Hi, just realized mines in the ball park. It's 6.49 x 5.96 which is approx 1.9

This other picture is a .91 D IF on the left next to my 1.01 E VS2 on the right. The .91 is even a bit longer.

Hope that helps a little.

BTW, I really love having a longer cushion because it makes my stubby fingers look svelt!
 
Thank you All! I have seen cushions in person, and my Fiance is working with both Perry and Mark to obtain, but I am left out of the details...We have been on the search for months, and my Fiance finally broke down and told me I needed to change something on the spec sheet, because it was nearly impossible to find...So I decided rather than give up on size or color, I would bend a little on the ratio. I said nothing higer than a 1.15 for my taste...the more elongated Cushions are really growing on me, they are lovely! Hopefully this will speed up the process, as fun as it is to research, I am no longer "involved" in the process, so I want to be wearing it already!!!! Lol...
 
Red- I just realized that your diamond is a D/IF!!! OMG!!! Wow, you are one VERY lucky girl! Talk about eyeclean/MINDclean...just gorgeous!!

Missydebby- LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your Leon creation, I never get tired of looking at your ring!

SparklyOEC- thanks for sharing ChickyMonkey's... her ring is spectacular!!
