Cushion shape lab grown diamonds are loved for their soft square or rectangular outline with rounded corners, giving them a classic yet romantic appearance. This diamond cut has been popular for generations and is often called a “pillow cut” because of its gentle shape. Most cushion diamonds feature around 58 facets and are available in both standard and modified brilliant cuts, designed to maximize sparkle. The combination of curved edges and brilliant faceting creates a beautiful balance of fire, brilliance, and softness that sets this shape apart from other diamond cuts.
