Cushion solitaire wedding rings

For brides interested in wearing a vintage style ring perhaps a cushion solitaire wedding ring can really make a fabulous unique selection. We think that the cushion diamond shape or cut is one of the most impressive, elegant, dramatic, imposing and yet romantic, stylish and refined shapes of all that a modern-vintage bride can choose from. The soft antique flair of the cushion cut diamond stone can really make the bride wearing the ring feel and look totally outstanding, sophisticated, simple and timeless.




But this type of ring is not recommended only for brides or grooms who are after the vintage style, but also for all the couples who are looking for a modern wedding ring with a more authentic and original meaningful flair or twist.

Nevertheless, this type of ring is surely a simple and unpretentious wedding ring that even the busiest active couples who live a more solicitant and stressful lifestyle can opt for. But compared to other types of diamond wedding rings this one is surely more stunning, easy to remark and treasure because of its original look. Most of the modern brides today are not interested in wearing that same old traditional or classical round shaped diamond wedding ring and in this case the cushion solitaire wedding ring can appear like a more interesting and charming or fascinating alternative. The sparkle of the cushion cut diamond is subtle and refined, enough to captivate the eyes and create a more romantic, elegant and gorgeous stylish effect.

This sensual type of shape does not sacrifice the elegance, the style or the romance that stand at the base of a classic wedding ring. There is a unique beauty that is hidden in this type of diamond shape that only the special unique couples can appreciate it. The cushion cut was popular in wedding rings over a century ago and it seems that now is combing back to life, to fashion and vogue once again, with more impact and force. It was called the “pillow” shape back then. This cut has a rectangular or a square shape, depending on the ring’s design and on the elaboration or formality of the ring.

The appearance of such diamond cut is usually described as a “puffy” one because of the round corners. Compared to other types of diamond cuts like emerald, princess or oval cuts, this shape is definitely a more inspiring, creative and outstanding alternative. You should know that the vintage types of cushion solitaire wedding rings usually feature a more asymmetrical cut because of the old techniques, while the contemporary designs have more refined and symmetrical shapes, due to the modern techniques of working with this type of cut. Nevertheless, the cushion diamond can rarely be found in other types of rings that are not antique inspired.
