What is a cushion cut diamond engagement ring?

This type of diamond, characterized by its brilliant cut facets, closely resembles a Round Brilliant diamond but possesses a subtly more square-shaped appearance. It is available in two styles, elongated or square.

What is the history behind the cushion cut diamond?

The cushion-cut diamond originated from the old mine diamond in the 18th century, and gained popularity during the Georgian and Victorian eras. It featured a square or rectangular shape with rounded corners and larger facets. Over time, advancements in diamond-cutting technology and its enduring appeal in the Art Deco period have contributed to the modern cushion cut, which blends step-cut and brilliant-cut facets, making it a classic and timeless choice for engagement rings.

Should you choose a square or elongated cushion?

A square cushion is more dainty and can be paired easier with larger wedding bands or other stones, but an elongated cushion can make the finger appear more slender. Both options have beautiful dazzle!

CUSHION Cut Diamond ENGAGEMENT RINGS

Cushion cut engagement rings are all the rage, and for good reason. The cushion cut silhouette can be either square or elongated and rectangular, with smooth rounded corners that make for a special faceting offering endless brilliant sparkle. These timeless gems have evolved over centuries from the old mine cut, gaining recognition as one of the most popular and romantic options.

The Versatility of Cushion Cut Diamonds in Jewelry Design

In the realm of fine jewelry, cushion diamonds are revered for versatility. The two choices for silhouette grant designers the ability to craft styles that range from classic to elaborate, catering to diverse preferences. A cushion cut diamond can speak for itself, beautifully complimented by a thin and simple band, or can be enhanced with a bit of character with a half or full bezel.
