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&#8217;s ratio. \u00a0This pillowed diamond shape will make a charming addition to any Knox custom setting.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_2438\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2438\" style=\"width: 302px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/diamonds.htm?resultsperpage=30&amp;currentpage=1&amp;select_shape[]=Cushion\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2438 \"  title=\"1.01-Carat-Cushion Cushion Cut Custom Engagement Rings\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/1.01-Carat-Cushion.jpg\"  alt=\"1.01-Carat-Cushion Unique Engagement Rings \"  width=\"302\" height=\"302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/1.01-Carat-Cushion.jpg 336w, https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/1.01-Carat-Cushion-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/1.01-Carat-Cushion-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 302px) 85vw, 302px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2438\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">1.01 Carat Cushion Cut Diamond<\/figcaption><\/figure>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 &#8220;old mine cut&#8221;, 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&#8217;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&#8217;s \u00a0rounded square shape with the addition of brilliant cut kite shaped facets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Solitaire Engagement Rings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Choose an elegant solitaire setting to showcase a beautiful, one-of-a-kind cushion cut diamond.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/products\/design-2533\"><img loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"2533_1_image Cushion Cut Custom Engagement Rings\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/storeimages\/products\/gallery\/2533_1_image.jpg\"  alt=\"2533_1_image Unique Engagement Rings \"  width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Antique Engagement Rings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Take a cue from generations past and feature a cushion cut diamond in your hand finished antique inspired engagement ring.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/products\/design-2473\"><img loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"2473_1_image Cushion Cut Custom Engagement Rings\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/storeimages\/products\/gallery\/2473_1_image.jpg\"  alt=\"2473_1_image Unique Engagement Rings \"  width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Classic Engagement Rings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A classic ring silhouette with clean lines and a cushion cut diamond make a perfect combination.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/products\/design-2271\"><img loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"2271_1_image Cushion Cut Custom Engagement Rings\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/storeimages\/products\/gallery\/2271_1_image.jpg\"  alt=\"2271_1_image Unique Engagement Rings \"  width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Halo Engagement Rings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Emphasize a cushion cut&#8217;s unique outline with a glittering diamond halo setting.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/products\/design-2393\"><img loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"2393_1_image_rose Cushion Cut Custom Engagement Rings\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/storeimages\/products\/gallery\/2393_1_image_rose.jpg\"  alt=\"2393_1_image_rose Unique Engagement Rings \"  width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Three Stone Engagement Rings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Choose the best of both world&#8217;s with a custom three-stone setting displaying a cushion cut in its center and finished with round brilliant diamonds on either side.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/products\/design-3305\"><img loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"3305_1_image Cushion Cut Custom Engagement Rings\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/storeimages\/products\/gallery\/3305_1_image.jpg\"  alt=\"3305_1_image Unique Engagement Rings \"  width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Wide Band Engagement Rings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A cushion cut diamond offers the ideal outline for a dramatic wide band ring.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/products\/design-2435\"><img loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"2435_1_image_yellow Cushion Cut Custom Engagement Rings\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/storeimages\/products\/gallery\/2435_1_image_yellow.jpg\"  alt=\"2435_1_image_yellow Unique Engagement Rings \"  width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Knox Jewelers Custom Design 2435<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Split Band Engagement Rings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A custom split band setting would be an outstanding way to display a cushion cut center with a longer, rectangular outline.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/products\/cushion-cielo\"><img loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"1045_1_image Cushion Cut Custom Engagement Rings\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.knoxjewelers.biz\/storeimages\/products\/gallery\/1045_1_image.jpg\"  alt=\"1045_1_image Unique Engagement Rings \"  width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Knox Jewelers Custom Design Cushion Cielo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Sapphire Engagement Rings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A rounded square outline is not reserved only for diamonds.
