Here's an absolutely drop dead gorgeous Cushion Diamond. It's near colorless- showing a slight tint at times.
Personally, I love these softer colors. It's like an antique in it's own way. Plus, the "soft white" colors cost a bundle less than the more intense yellow, or colorless diamonds. I don't equate the price tag with beauty. A stone does not have to be the most expensive, or "best" quality, to be the most beautiful.
This diamond is the perfect example why looking at the lower colors makes great sense for some folks.
The cut is such an important aspect of any diamond.
This remarkable diamond combines old and new elements. To me, it combines a lot of what I love about an emerald cut, with elements of a round. There is both sparkle as well as glitter.
The center diamond has a very cool personality. The shape is pleasing and organic.
Another great aspect of this cut is that it looks pretty large for it's weight.
The setting is pure artistry. Two delicate looking supports gracefully arch up to hold the top of the ring. This allows space so that you can wear this one right next to a wedding band.
The entire look is dainty and feminine in it's own way.
The ring looks great on the hand.
The grades below are ours. There is an EGL report calling the center diamond J SI1. We respectfully disagree with that result- and in fact, never advertise a diamond as "certified" without a grade from a GIA report.
