More about cushion cut diamonds
In the 1920’s, research by Marcel Tolkowsky led to many refinements to cushion cut diamonds such as shrinking the culet, enlarging the table, and improved cut angles for increased brilliance. The beauty of the cushion cut diamond is the fusion of classic and modern, and can be easily recognized by its square or rectangular brilliant cuts with rounded corners and curved sides that resemble the pillow or cushion shape. This cut style allows for more engaged light dispersion and fire, making it the choice for the individual that seeks modern cosmopolitan romanticism with an elegance beyond that of the traditional square or round cuts, thus becoming the perfect stone for engagement and weddings rings for the truly magnificent.  Shopping for this style of cut does require a little more advanced understanding, and using the services of a highly trained gemologist is very important.
