A great video featuring 4 different types of appearance you can get in a cushion cut diamond in 6 Cushions we showed. Each of these have polish and symmetry ratings no less than "Very Good" on GIA Reports. Below is a summary of these diamonds. 1. A cushion with a mixed appearance. "Good brightness and fire but not the best. 2. One of my favorite diamonds in this lineup. You'll see why. It falls under the "chunky" old styled cushion appearance. 3. The 3rd cushion has a crushed ice appearance and looks similar to alot of radiant cuts. Fire is minimal and in diffuse lighting very watery looking. NOt my favorite. 4. Same as #3. Unfortunately the market is flooded with these. 5. A very interesting cushion that has nice contrast and fire around the crown facets yet has a crushed ice look under the table. A very interesting mix representing quite a few cushions out there. 6. Another one of my favorites. It is diamonds like this one and #2 that has caused us to begin cutting a line of these particular cushions which is in the works. The Ultimate Diamond Information Site www.goodoldgold.com
