Arrow E-Ring Setting & Diamond help!
I guess I am pretty anal to the point that my bf is to scared to pick a setting for me!

We are going setting shopping together and I get to pick a setting that meets all my specifications! But I just CANNOT for the life of me choose which one. I know I want a halo, but for a cushion or round.

Rounds VS Cushion: which would cost more, if the 2 "looked" equal in size. I know rounds may look bigger because of how its cut, but what about cushions? Can someone help me out. TIA!

So girls: which setting do you think is nice and good for the long haul?

OPTION 1


OPTION 2


Pics i found from pricescope, i hope the owner doesnt mind. I just think theyre extremely beautiful, both of them!

I'm not really answering your question but

personally i like cushion with halo better...it's so pretty!!

and I think you should consider the quality of the stones rather than the size

good luck with your decision :)

In most other settings I prefer round.

Both are beautiful options.

I have a 'halo' style ring with a round solitaire.

Round brilliants are my fav :)

I definitely prefer a cushion cut, it is more unique. And for a halo setting, you should check out Ritani Endless Love. Their settings are gorgeous! I think the bottom pic may be a Ritani.

For a halo setting I prefer the cushion cut diamond. It's beautiful! For almost every other setting I prefer round brilliant. Ritani has gorgeous halo settings!
