Cushion Cut Diamond & Cushion Cut Engagement Rings Buying Guide

• When you buy a Cushion Cut Diamond you should note that there are cushion cut diamonds which are squarish and there are some that are rectangular. Note the measurements. You should look at the length to width ratio. If the Length / Width is 1.15 or more you are to expect a rectangular shaped cushion cut diamond. When talking about cushion cut, people imagine the rectangular (as in our sample photo). However, both the lengthy cushion cut and the squarish look amazing and have a great brilliance - it's just a matter of style.
• Unlike step cut diamonds, cushion cut diamonds have many facets and therefore have the ability to hide their flaws better. Nevertheless, due to the large facets, the flaws in the cushion cut diamond are still more visible than for example in princess cut diamonds.
