I think it looks amazing. Have you checked to see if it is eye clean?

I''ll be honest, I''m not loving it.

A lot of it''s personal though, so if you like it, it really doesn''t matter what I think.

p.s. Great size though.

I think it gorgeous...and a rare ex/ex at that...

Yes, it it supposed to be eye-clean.

Ellen, what is it that you don''t care for?

 

[Ellen]

I don''t care for how it looks dark under the table, and makes the table so pronounced, that caught my eye right away. And there''s just something about the look, I just don''t see the big chunky facet look I like in a cushion. To be honest, I don''t know if I''ve ever seen a cushion quite like this.

It''s just really different from what I expected to see when I opened it. But like I said, it''s really personal.

I''m with Ellen...I don''t LOVE it...but I also don''t hate it. But that''s just a personal preference. It certainly looks like it will perform well. Why not see if you can get some more pictures to see if it''s just the lighting or what?

I should be getting a video comparison between that stone and a H&A round sometime this weekend.

Great looking forward to it!!!

I think it is one of the better cushions I have seen. I emailed that stone''s page to someone in the last day or two, as a matter of fact. The just-under-2ct. size is very desirable, too!

just watched the video and i''m going to ditto myself...if you are wanting a rectangular cushion that is beautiful to me....(love those rounds though too

)

By the way, the video did help me to make a decision on that stone.

I love all the videos from Good Old Gold. They''re incredibly helpful! And just another reason why I tell all the people I know who are considering buying a stone that they have to check out GOG''s site first.

 

[mrssalvo]

what did you decide?

 

[Addlepated]

I''m just drawing out the suspense a little.

I did not like the stone as it appears in the video. I like a chunkier flash than it gave off. The rounds actually looked pretty nice, though.

Based on what I saw, I decided to keep looking a while longer. Maybe someone else will see it and decide they love it!
