Cushion shaped Gemstones

A cushion cut gemstone is a type of gemstone cut that has a rectangular shape with rounded corners, similar to a pillow shape. This cut is also known as a "pillow cut" or "candlelight cut" and it is a popular choice for diamond and other precious gemstones. Cushion cut stones have larger facets than the round cuts and the unique shape allows for more light reflection, providing a balance of both brilliance and fire.

The cushion cut was first introduced in the 19th century and it was a popular cut for diamonds in the early 20th century and it has been recently gaining popularity again. This cut has a vintage appeal and can create a classic and elegant look.

This cut can be found in different variations, like the Old Mine Cut and the Old European Cut. They tend to be a little deeper than the more modern cushion cut and they have a larger table and smaller culet.

Cushion cut gemstones can be used in a variety of jewelry such as engagement rings, pendants, earrings, and other types of jewelry. It is a versatile cut that can be set in both modern and traditional styles of jewelry, and it can be a great choice for those who are looking for a timeless and elegant gemstone cut.
