As we all know, when shopping for engagement rings, there are many options to consider. The search should be a fun and memorable experience but at times, it can get a little overwhelming! Don’t let that discourage you; I’m here to help. With that said, let’s talk about the ever so popular cushion cut diamond engagement ring!
Popular in the 19th century, the cushion cut has made quite the comeback, quickly becoming one of the more talked about cuts around. It’s defined by its elegant square cut diamond and round corners, and the process by which its cut emphasizes the brilliance of the gem. It’s no big wonder why this gorgeous stone is so highly sought after. Despite its wide popularity, you can still manage to find a cushion cut design that embodies your style.
One style that is quite popular with brides-to-be is the halo cushion cut. The center stone is encircled by a group of smaller diamonds, subtly enhancing the beauty and brilliance of it. Natalie K. offers a variety of cushion cut halo engagement rings, ranging from modern to vintage inspired. If that isn’t enough, Natalie K is a Forevermark Partner. Learn more here.
