Introduction

The cushion shape has a square profile, with curved edges and rounded corners, combining a square shape with a touch of softness. The cushion-shaped stone has the strongest fire color of any shaped stone. The Cushion Cut Moissanite has a unique cut that gives it a beautiful brilliance and a fascinating fire color. The Cushion Cut Moissanite is an elegant and calm stone that celebrates the love of nature.

Benefits

Cushion-Cut Moissanite combines some of the advantages of round moissanite and princess square moissanite, with its rounded rectangular edges, offering an unmistakable combination of classic and stylish beauty. With its rounded edges, it has a softer look than the princess's square diamond. Without the hard edges, it is also favored by more romantic women. The rounded shape, often surrounded by small diamonds set in a beaded chain, evokes the gracefulness of the Edwardian era, bringing a touch of boldness and untamedness alongside the austerity. Marriage is one of the more important moments in a girl's life, and it is of course as important to choose the one that suits her better as it is to find her other half, and the same is true when choosing a wedding ring.

The cut

The cushion cut was developed some 200 years ago and did not become the most popular diamond cut for engagement rings until the early 20th century. After many refinements, the effect is now a blend of the classic cushion-shaped look and modern brilliant fire. A more recent variation on the cushion cut is the alteration of the fire color, giving its Cushion Cut Moissanite an extra row of facets to create an unmistakable sparkling 'crushed ice' effect.

Craft requirements

The Cushion Cut Moissanite, like the standard round brilliant cut, has 58 small facets to maximize the fire of the diamond! However, its table is smaller than the other facets and the diamond has a thinner girdle and overall flatness. There is a small cut at the bottom point, and a small hole can be seen inside the diamond when viewed through the table with a magnifying glass. However, with this cut, it is also easier to see flaws and requires a certain level of clarity.

The cushion cut has a magnifying effect on the color and requires a certain amount of color, which is why it is often used in the cutting of colored stones.
