The setting is unpolished in this picture, and without the pave on top.

It''s platinum, with 60 or 70 points tcw pave on the side and (not yet set on) the top.

The stone will be set up a little bit from the halo on progs, vs the bezel or channel look of the tiffany legacy ring (which is the general insipration for this ring).

The cushion was cut by Kuperman Bros., and my guy brought it back from JCK in vegas.

There will be a surprise diamond set on each side, under the halo.

Thanks, darling! Yours looks like it's going to be stunning also - and your cushion is to die for!!

Wedding band? hmmmm now there's a question... I'll probably have the same jeweller custom make a 2mm pave band exactly like the shank of my E-ring.

So pretty much very similar to the legacy diamond band. I really love the Legacy set so that was I was aiming for..... however, I am loving some art deco style beverly k bands which I thought might look a bit more interesting/unique.... I will eventually add milgrain to my ering when I get my wedding band....

Although I like the idea of the bev k deco band... I think I might get ''over'' it and want something a bit more classic that matches my ering more.... so probably more leaning towards the legacy style pave milgrain band... what are you thinking of doing for a band?

Those are both beautiful. We''re going to pick them out together, so she can choose whichever band she prefers.
