Your engagement ring should be as unique and stunning as your love story. If you’re looking for a ring that blends timeless romance with a modern twist, the elongated cushion cut engagement ring might just be “the one.” This gorgeous cut enhances sparkle, maximizes visual size, and flatters every hand shape—what’s not to love?
In this guide, we’ll dive into what makes the elongated cushion cut diamond engagement ring so special, why it’s trending, and how F. Silverman Jewelers can help you find (or create) the perfect match.
1. What Is an Elongated Cushion Cut Engagement Ring?
Think of the elongated cushion cut engagement ring as the perfect balance between soft curves and modern elegance. It keeps the classic, pillow-like shape of a traditional cushion cut but stretches it slightly, creating a more rectangular profile. The result? A ring that looks bigger, shines brighter, and adds a unique edge to a beloved classic.
Key Features:
- Soft, rounded edges for a timeless, romantic feel
- Elongated shape that makes the diamond appear larger
- Brilliant faceting that enhances light reflection for extra sparkle
- Versatile design that works beautifully in various settings
