So I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with the 1.85 ct emerald that was being discussed on an earlier thread. Many thanks to all those that helped--in particular Strm, Lorelei, and Stone-cold. I'm now trying to decide on a setting. I know that she wants a platinum solitaire ring--and wants whatever makes the diamond look the biggest. The options I've been considering:
4-Prong Tiffany Style: http://www.whiteflash.com/Engagement-Rings/Styles/Solitaire/4-Prong-tiffany-style-solitaire-for-fancy-cut_756.htm
Sleek Lines: http://www.whiteflash.com/Engagement-Rings/Styles/Solitaire/-Sleek-Lines--Diamond-Solitaire_688.htm
Legato Sleek Line (apparently the Legato usually isn't compatible with an EC, but WF said they could make me a semi-custom ring that would work): http://www.whiteflash.com/Engagement-Rings/Styles/Solitaire/-Legato--Sleek-Line-Diamond-Solitaire_1118.htm
Any thoughts/opinions would be great!
