Alright, so I've tried to educate myself better on where and how to pick out a cushion cut online-Thanks to Gypsy for the friendly nudge in the right direction. I wanted to start a new thread with everything a bit better laid out. I understand I have three ASETS I can request through JA so I would love if I could get some help finding good options within my range!
Setting: I am really drawn to the setting Urasia created with BE, this looks stunning to me and I'd like to have something like this:

Metal: I like rose gold a lot.... but if that would be a bad combination with the diamond/setting type I picked please let me know. I think the modern look of the solitaire setting with the old style look of rose gold would look nice. Otherwise platinum is ok I suppose.
Diamond: Cushion cut is what I'm going for. I flat out asked today how my partner feels about color in diamonds and the response was "I've never noticed it. What is it? I'll like whatever you get me"...so I'll take that as a sign that color wise I can go down to J. I actually like a little bit of color, although I feel maybe a little uncomfortable with J color since I've never seen that in person to know truly how much color that would be; at any rate I think it would be ok for her.
I would feel more comfortable with VS2 or better, I really worry about being able to determine eye cleanliness through pictures. Size wise, I'd like around the 1.3-1.5 carat mark if that's reasonable with my budget. I would sacrifice size for cut obviously but hey, the bigger the better. I know I am not fond of the crushed ice style of cushions.
Budget: 10k all in.
Anyone mind to help me find some good candidates on JA? Thank you!
