Pic of my new cushion

[indypitty]

I have only posted a few times, but have read (obsessively) pretty much everything on this forum about cushions. I definitely did my homework and decided to order this cushion from an online vendor. In the picture it is in a tension setting. It arrived last week and has already been sent to a different vendor for the setting. We should receive the ring by the end of next week!!! I just wanted to share a few pictures and thank those of you that helped in the search.

It is being set in this setting... http://www.jamesallen.com/products/item_58-1457.asp

wow, those are like RB #s - it must face up v large for the ct weight!

looks luvly & i'm sure it'll be amazing in that setting! don't forget to post photos!

Thank you, everyone, for such nice comments.

Pupper - Yes, it does face up quite large for it''s weight. I was originally looking in the 2 carat range, but this stone faces up larger than some 2 carats I saw!!!

Here is another picture... the clunkiness of the tension setting is masking some of the width, making it appear more oval-ish (although it is a longer cushion)
