Would love to hear your comments on this stone:

Currently, I have a 1.76 round that I got at good old gold, but I am thinking about trying out a cushion cut stone.

What do you think about light performance and spread? (My round is about 7.75 mm) Do you think that this cushion will look significantly smaller than my round?

Thanks for your comments.

Gorgeous diamond! It might look a bit smaller than your round, you could contact GOG and ask for more info on it.

Thanks for your input. I did talk to GOG and they said that the cushion would face up a little smaller, but would look more chunky...like more of a rock.

I am wondering, do you think that cushions are just making somewhat of a faddish comeback, or do you think they have a timeless quality?

Thanks for your help.

Most welcome!

To me a cushion is a classic, they have been around for a long time anyway and now it is interesting with the growth of the internet and images and education etc, that nowadays consumers have more choices so the cushion has become very popular - you don't just have to go with whats on offer in your local jeweller. Out of interest I think it was Eleanor Roosevelt who had a cushion in her e-ring! I definitely am of the opinion that the cushion has a timeless quality.

Beautiful stone ! I love cushions and think they''re a timeless classic. However, I''m a little biased.

That is a GORGEOUS stone!!! I myself is looking for a cushion as well!! But that one is just a bit out of my budget!!! I love cushions because they have the classic look of a round but yet it''s got a slight touch of "trendy" to it.....
