Help needed: Looking for a 2+ct Cushion w HW halo micro pave

[sm2012]

Hi, I am looking for a 2+ct cushion stone (H, VS2..) with a Harry Winston style, halo micro pave setting. My budget is $20K. After reading some of your posts here my first step will be to call ERD. Any other advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Modern cushion or antique cushion? Square or rectangular?

I wrote this to help people out in buying a cushion / hw halo. Take a read through and let us know what type of cushion you are looking for.

I would stick to Steven Kirsch and Victor Canera for Harry Winston style halos. They consistently make the excellent ones.

As far as the stone goes, we can help you once we know what style cushion you like.

Thank you all for your replies!
CharmyPoo, your guide was one of the first things I read and it was very helpful.

I am looking for a square stone, modern cushions brilliants (Would x-factor fall under this category?) and and would consider newly cut antique cushions.. Few things that I don't like - crushed ice effect on modified brilliants and larger culets (on true antique stones).

I hope this makes sense

Besides Mark, I would contact Good Old Gold because they carry a few different types of cushions and are very good at calling in good ones.
