Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use the Cushion Cut Diamond size chart?
The chart helps you see how each carat weight translates into millimeter dimensions, so you can visualize the actual size of your cushion diamond before buying.
Do cushion diamonds hide inclusions well?
Yes, the facet pattern of a cushion cut helps mask small inclusions better than step-cut shapes like emeralds or Asschers.
How can I make my cushion diamond appear larger?
Choose a halo setting or a slightly elongated ratio (around 1.15) to give the illusion of a bigger stone on your finger.
What makes cushion cut diamonds so popular for vintage-style rings?
Their rounded corners and soft edges resemble old mine cuts, giving cushion diamonds a timeless, romantic appeal that fits both modern and vintage designs.
What’s the best color grade for cushion cut diamonds?
Since cushion cuts tend to retain more color, grades between G and I are ideal for balancing warmth and sparkle—especially in yellow or rose gold settings.
What is the ideal ratio for a cushion cut diamond?
A length-to-width ratio between 1.00 and 1.10 gives a square shape, while 1.15 to 1.30 creates a more rectangular look.
Are all cushion diamonds the same shape?
No, cushion diamonds vary from square to rectangular, and the exact shape depends on the length-to-width ratio and cutting style.
