Cushion Brilliant Diamonds

[TwinkleCootie]

All,

I am helping a good friend of mine look for a diamond engagement ring for his girlfriend. I am trying to convince him of the merits of buying a stone online as opposed to a brick and mortar store but he has his mind set on a cushion brilliant cut and cannot find anything on Blue Nile, James Allen, or anywhere else. There are several places that he has checked out locally that inventories these cuts but I think he can stretch his budget more if he goes the online route. Does anyone know where I can send him to? He is specifically looking for a cushion brilliant cut not a cushion modified brilliant or a antique brilliant. I don't know that much about Cushion cuts but supposedly a cushion brilliant has the same facets as a round brilliant on the pavilion but a traditional cushion on the crown.

Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, actually believe it or not you will find the best standard of diamond cutting online in place like Leon Mege, Victora Canera, Good old Gold and Diamond by lauren, Here you can find all the antique diamonds you desire .

I'd call Good Old Gold, tell them exactly what is desired, and let them do their magic. They provide a full workup including light performance images and videos, so he wouldn't be "buying blind". Stress ideal light performance with an exceptional cut quality, and that you can't determine those things without reflector images and seasoned professional eyes. There's no sense in buying a plot you like if it doesn't sparkle in real life!
