Why diamond-set shoulders?
Diamond-set shoulders add a row of small diamonds part way down the band on each side of the centre stone. They add sparkle and lead the eye to the centre diamond, while the plain lower band keeps the ring comfortable and easy to resize.
The cushion cut diamond
The cushion cut is a square or slightly long diamond with softly rounded corners, like a pillow. Its larger facets give big, bold flashes of light, with a warm, vintage feel that goes back over two hundred years.
Choosing your cushion diamond
Our diamond search splits cushions by shape: square cushions have a ratio up to 1.08, and elongated cushions start at 1.15. Cushions can hold a little colour in their corners, so G to H is a good colour choice, with SI1 or better clarity.
Platinum or gold?
Platinum is naturally white, hard-wearing and the most secure choice for the claws that hold your diamond. 18ct white, yellow and rose gold cost a little less, and 9ct gold less again. Shop by metal: platinum, 18ct white gold, 18ct yellow gold or 18ct rose gold.
Choose your own diamond
Every ring is set with a centre diamond you choose yourself, natural or lab-grown, from our live stock. Each stone has its grading report, and the ring page shows the finished price before you buy.
