FAQs about Cushion Cut Diamonds

What are the different types of cushion cut diamonds?

Cushions come in two styles of cut. The traditional cut exhibits large, distinct facets that reflect light in bold flashes. The "crushed ice" cut gives you less distinct facets but a beautiful, glittery sparkle. Either style is just as versatile as round and works well with almost any setting.

What is a cushion cut diamond?

A cushion cut diamond has 58 facets arranged in a rounded square shape. This diamond shape is cut for brilliance, so that sparkle is maximized. Modern cushion cut diamonds can be traced back to old mine cut diamonds that dominated jewelry from the 1700s to the late 19th century. This heritage gives today’s cushion cuts vintage appeal in the right settings. Still, cushion cut diamonds can also be incredibly modern. Elongated cushion cut diamonds bring today’s style to classic designs.

Are cushion cut diamonds a good value?

Because of their large facets, cushion-cut diamonds are also an extraordinary value. They are one of our least expensive cuts, sometimes well over 25% less than a round cut diamond. The cut is relatively deep, which can make the diamond look smaller than most shapes, so you may want to opt for a larger carat weight.

Do cushion cut diamonds look smaller?

These stones have a deeper cut, so cushion cuts can look smaller than other shapes of similar diamond carat weight. If you are considering a cushion cut diamond, you might want to consider selecting a higher carat weight diamond.

They still have the same cushion faceting, making elongated cushion cut engagement rings and other jewelry with this fancy cut a sparkling choice.

What makes a cushion cut look larger?

Because the cut-depth of a cushion diamond can be deeper, these stones may look smaller than their carat weight would suggest.

Elongated cushion cuts will look larger due to increased finger coverage.
