30 Brilliant Cushion Cut Engagement Rings

Cushion cut diamonds get their name from their shape. When viewed from above, this diamond shape looks like a square with rounded corners, just like a cushion. Unlike other diamond shapes that have standardized faceting patterns, the cushion cut can have a bit more variety.

Cushion cut diamonds feature soft, rounded edges which lend to a more romantic feel. In contrast to the understated romance of a cushion cut, princess cut diamonds offer a more modern and geometric look to engagement ring settings.

The rare diamond cut that is the “Royal Asscher Cut” is an updated Asscher Diamond design which was created by Joseph Asscher in 1902.
