Book a ConsultationCushion 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.
The halo of melee surrounding the center stone adds approximately 0.3 to 0.5 carats of visual size, plus dramatically more sparkle. A halo also protects the center stone and allows a smaller center to look significantly larger.

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 to 1.25:1 (elongated cushion).
Both. RockHer offers GIA-graded natural cushion diamonds and IGI-graded lab-grown cushion diamonds. Lab-grown stones cost 60 to 80% less than natural at the same specs and are physically identical. Natural diamonds retain stronger long-term value.
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 show more color than rounds, so at least H color is recommended. For step-cut clarity of facets, go VS1 or better.
