Cushion diamonds are the go-to shape for vintage and contemporary brides alike, featuring a pillow-shaped outline with rounded corners — soft, romantic, and timeless. Cushions come in two main cut styles: 'antique' (chunky facets, more fire, romantic look) and 'brilliant' (smaller facets, more sparkle, modern look). The choice is aesthetic — neither is better than the other.
Cushions are the most versatile shape for vintage-inspired settings — milgrain, filigree, and halo designs all enhance their romantic silhouette.
The most popular sizes are 1.5 carat, 2 carat, and 2.5 carat. Cushions face up slightly smaller than ovals but larger than rounds. Popular ratios: 1:1 (perfect square cushion) and 1.15–1.25:1 (elongated cushion).
