Our new favorite custom created engagement ring is all the buzz around the shop, here at Knox Jewelers. This resent custom creation is inspired from one of our most noteworthy antique inspired stock designs, the Rachel Lily. This version of the setting has been modified to include a glittering bead set diamond halo framing the center bezel set 1.00 carat oval cut diamond.  An elegant knife edge band tapers from either side of the central halo. The profile view of the setting is embellished with bead set diamonds, filigree pockets and dramatic relief scroll engraving. Design 3338 is a visual tapestry of details, with Knox hand finishes to dazzle the eye at every angle.

Cushion Cut Custom Engagement Rings

Although a round brilliant cut diamond remains the most popular center stone featured in our custom engagement rings, here at Knox Jewelers we have seen an influx of requests for the ever versatile cushion cut diamond. In fact, many of our cushion cut rings have been re-imagined with a cushion cut diamond taking center stage. A cushion diamond flatters any hand, with its clean lines and softened corners. However, they do carry weight in these corners, meaning a 1.00 carat cushion diamond will have a lesser millimeter spread than an equivalent 1.00 carat round brilliant. Cushion shapes can be found in a more square outline as well as a rectangular outline, depending upon the diamond’s ratio.  This pillowed diamond shape will make a charming addition to any Knox custom setting.

1.01-Carat-Cushion Unique Engagement Rings
1.01 Carat Cushion Cut Diamond
Cushion cut is one of the oldest diamond shapes, seen through history, the modern interpretation of this diamond outline has become quite popular in our custom engagement rings. Cushion cut diamonds can trace their begin back to an early brilliant diamond cut call the “old mine cut”, that was popular in the 18th and 19th century. An old mine cut originated through the hope of retaining as much finished diamond from the rough crystal as possible. The cut’s square shape and rounded corners were an effective way to save carat weight from the most frequently occurring rough diamond shape, the octahedral. The modern cushion cut mimics its predecessor’s  rounded square shape with the addition of brilliant cut kite shaped facets.
