I wasn't sure what to expect because I had never seen the setting in person. The Verragio setting is beautiful and it really compliments the diamond. And The Cut Above diamond sparkles like no other. It's been raining the past two days and today is the first day I was able to look at it in the sun and it was unreal! Now, I'm not into jewellery but I honestly don't think I've seen a diamond do that before. I wasn't sure to get more carats and a cheaper cut, or go with an ideal cut and get a smaller carat size. But after seeing the diamond this morning I couldn't be happier with my purchase.
