A diamond or gem’s sparkle is determined by the shape it’s cut into. Gems possess a flawless, crisp shine from its facets and how light travels through the stone. With flat, polished surfaces from within the gem, facets work as tiny mirrors, cut and arranged to maximise the diamond’s ability to draw in and reflect the light. This makes the gem more brilliant and sparkly than any other cuts and shapes.

While similar to Round Brilliant and Princess cuts, the Cushion Cut offers a distinctive look with high brilliance and fire, giving Cushion Cut diamonds and gemstones a vintage-inspired glow that feels both elegant and understated.
The Cushion Cut is versatile across a wide range of gemstones, including Cushion Cut diamonds, rubies, sapphires, emeralds, zircon, and man-made crystals. Its artful facets allow light to flow freely, enhancing each stone’s sparkle while maintaining a soft, refined appearance. Offering a more unique alternative to Round and Princess cuts, Cushion Cut rings and jewellery remain a popular choice for engagement rings and statement pieces, providing timeless glamour with a touch of individuality.
The Cushion Cut traces its origins back to the 1700s, when it was inspired by the Old Mine Cut. During this time, Brazil was the world’s diamond capital, and cutters developed the style to maximise carat weight from rougher Brazilian stones while requiring less time to execute. This early brilliance has carried through to the modern cushion cut – with the famed Hope Diamond standing as the most valuable example of its timeless allure.
