The cushion cut is an antique style of the diamond cut and is famous for having a deep cut comprising of large facets. These large facets contribute to the over all sparkle effect produced by the diamonds.
If compared to the various other shapes of diamonds, the cushion cut are the most similar to the oval cut diamonds. The cushion cut diamonds have rounded corners and their overall length and width may vary. The best cushion cut diamond has the length-to-width ration of 1.1 and 1.2. The radiance of the cushion cut diamonds depends largely on the color and clarity of the diamonds.

Exquisite Cushion Cut Diamonds
