New to PS...would appreciate opinions on cushion

[cushionladyESQ]

Hi Everyone,

I am new to posting on PS, but not new to the site. Of course I have been watching it for a while.

So my boyfriend purchased a cushion from James Allen recently, and we are going to have it set with Leon Mege.

I just wanted some opinions on whether you like it east-west or north-south. I like east-west, and my guy likes it north-south. Neither of us are convinced yet.

Here are the diamond stats:

2.02
I
VS1
Old Mine Brilliant
53% table
1:10 ratio
7.78x7.07

My boyfriend was heavily influenced by my preferences, and the magical work of bostonjeff.

Also, the diamond is in one of those tension things...

Can we see it both ways on your hand? I really found it easier to chose when seeing them on the wearer''s finger. It''s gorgeous BTW, congratuations!

I personally love east-west...but either way, that cushion is beautiful!!

That is a gorgeous cushion. As for the setting direction, it also depends upon the shape and length of your fingers and hand. Those with short fingers and small hands cannot pull off EW settings as well as those with long slim fingers and hands.

As soon as I get it in my hands, I will try it on! The thing is that I am in New York for school and my boyfriend is in the San Francisco Bay Area waiting for me. I will be able soon...
