The cushion cut diamond combines vintage charm with modern brilliance. Named for its pillow-like shape with softly rounded corners, this romantic cut has been cherished for over 200 years and continues to be a top choice for engagement rings.
Our cushion cut lab grown diamonds feature either classic cushion or modified cushion brilliant faceting, each offering exceptional fire and light return. The cushion's larger facets create bold flashes of light, while its rounded edges give it a softer, more romantic appearance than angular cuts.
Available in both square and elongated rectangular shapes, our cushion cut engagement rings suit every style preference. Choose from delicate solitaires, sparkling halo designs, or vintage-inspired settings. All rings are crafted in 14K gold, 18K gold, or platinum with IGI or GIA certified center stones.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between cushion brilliant and modified cushion cuts?
Classic cushion brilliants have larger facets that create broad light flashes, while modified cushion brilliants have an extra row of facets for more sparkle similar to round brilliants. Both are beautiful—it's a matter of personal preference.
Should I choose a square or elongated cushion cut?
Square cushions (1.00-1.05 ratio) offer a classic look, while elongated cushions (1.15-1.30 ratio) create a slenderizing effect on the finger. Try both to see which shape appeals to you most.
Do cushion cuts hide inclusions well?
Yes! The cushion cut's facet pattern does a good job of masking inclusions compared to step cuts like emerald. SI1 or VS2 clarity grades typically appear eye-clean in cushion cut diamonds.
