A cushion cut diamond is a square or rectangular-shaped diamond with rounded corners and large facets that resemble a pillow, hence the name. It combines a vintage feel with modern brilliance.
The ideal length-to-width ratio for a cushion cut diamond varies based on personal preference. Ratios between 1.00 and 1.05 are more square, while ratios above 1.10 are more rectangular.
Cushion cut diamonds have excellent brilliance, though they may not sparkle as intensely as round brilliant cuts due to their larger facets. However, they have a unique, soft glow and fire.
Cushion cut diamonds are less prone to chipping compared to shapes with sharp points, such as marquise or princess cuts, due to their rounded corners.
A cushion cut diamond has a square or rectangular shape with rounded corners and large facets, while a round cut diamond is circular with smaller, more numerous facets. Cushion cuts have a vintage appeal, whereas round cuts are known for maximum brilliance.
Choosing the right carat size depends on personal preference and budget. Cushion cut diamonds tend to appear smaller than round diamonds of the same carat weight due to their deeper cut, so you may want to choose a slightly larger carat size to achieve the desired look.
