Cushion Cut Diamond Rings: All The Features

CUT "Cushion" Cushion cut diamond ring

This form of cutting was invented in the XIX century. It is characterized by smooth edges and rounded corners, like a pillow.

The shape of the diamond is square. One of the most noticeable features of this cut is a large caletta, designed in the form of an additional face.

A modern-cut "Kushon" diamond usually has 58 facets, although there are no restrictions. Traditional cut stones "Kushon" return light in relatively large fragments.

And for modern diamonds of this shape, a smoother light reflection is characteristic. The "couchons" of the new type are improved due to a slightly smaller caletta, a larger platform and improved brilliance at the corners. It is believed that this form of cutting is characterized by a more intense play of light than for round diamond-cut stones.
"Kushon" does not retain color as well as other forms of cutting. Therefore, we recommend choosing a diamond of color group H or higher. However, this cut is suitable for fancy diamonds, favorably emphasizing the saturation of their unusual colors.
