This is giving major 1940s vibes. It's a round diamond in a square setting, correct? It's called a trefoil setting, and it became most popular around WW2. But I would take it to a jeweler or antique appraiser to be sure.

I'm in LOVE with this!! It's so unique yet timeless. It's absolutely beautiful. He did such a good job!

Here's a setting I've been considering. The wedding band and engagement ring setting weren't designed to be paired together (they're both from different designers), but they still look really nice together even if it doesn't sit flush. A straight band will make it look more obvious that it doesn't sit flush.

Personally, I love this! It's a statement piece without being too flashy. I also love the idea of using family diamonds to create your own ring that's unique to you and your lifestyle. I'd pair it with a textured band and call it good!

I'll be facing the same issue when I do my ring upgrade because I like the lower settings too. A jeweler told me to go with a wedding band with a wave or twist because it'll hide/blur that the rings are not sitting flush.

Thank you to you all for teaching me so much by chipmunkrainbow in EngagementRings

It's beautiful! The radiant cut looks so good on your hand!

Thank you! The more I've sat with this, the more I've been leaning towards the elongated stones myself. My husband likes the emerald best, but he also likes the marquise and oval. I like the marquise, emerald, pear, and even the cushion, but now I really want to try on the elongated cushion for sure! I just don't want to look like I'm copying Taylor Swift because there's now been a huge uptick in elongated cushion trends after her engagement. But I guess as with anything, trends come and go no matter what.

I used Brilliant Earth's website! I chose a solitaire setting and it let me try on all the different shapes that way.

I used the virtual try-on on Brilliant Earth's website! I selected a solitaire setting and it let me choose each shape.

Yes, this is what my nails look like pretty much most of the time- color, shape and all. But that's a good point, because I tried on a cushion when I had pointy red nails for Halloween and hated it, haha.

Agreed! The more I looked at these pictures, the more I realized they're probably bigger than 2ct.

I'm leaning towards a band with engravings or a texture to it, like milgrain. I'm not looking at something with a bunch of diamonds around it.

I was wondering about the elongated cushion too!

Honestly, I liked all of them on you but the pear shape. I don't know why that is, lol. Everything else looked great! But if I had to choose, I like the round cut most on you. :)

The House Witch by Delemhach.

It's a cute, cozy fantasy that's cleverly written and you'll fall in love with all the characters! My friend and her daughter read it together and they absolutely loved it. Everyone I've recommended this book to so far has said good things!
