Cushion Cut Diamond Rings
The Cushion cut shaped
rectangular or square has 58 brilliant facets and corners that are rounded.

Grossly
viewed, the antique styled cushion cut gives the combined look of the
Old Mine cut and the present day oval cut. The cushion cut diamond ring
is found both in contemporary and antique designs and has therefore
considerable popularity. If one is looking for a ring with antique settings,
a good decision would be to go for the cushion cut diamond ring that
reflects the vintage look very appropriately. While earlier cushion
cut diamond used to be found only in auctions, now because of the growing
popularity, one can have a cushion cut diamond ring from the diamond
retailers also. A cushion cut diamond ring is after all a class by itself.
There are varying standards
for cushion cut diamonds. There are different width to depth ratio and
different sizes of tables. The open culet in the cushion cut provides
the diamond with depth. The shapes also vary from longish rectangular
to almost square. The stones in the cushion cut diamond ring have large
facets with open appearance that highlights the clarity of the diamond.
It is therefore advisable to go for as high quality of color and clarity
as one can afford within the budget.
Round brilliant cut is
the most common choice for engagement ring. But if one intends to depart
from tradition to opt for something non-traditional but romantic, a
cushion cut diamond ring must be the right answer. The choice also becomes
justified if the cushion cut has the right symmetry and polish. The
ring may be made with solitaire or with accent stones settings. While
four is the minimum prong required for a cushion cut diamond ring, if
the stones are larger, additional prongs are needed for secured settings
of the diamonds. It is not ideal for a cushion cut diamond ring to be
made with diamond of below 1 carat. In that case, Asscher cut diamonds
would be a better choice. The Red Cross diamond, one of the best types
of cushion cut makes really great engagement diamond rings.
