4.55ct DEW White Moissanite Cushion Solitaire Ring

Soft geometry and brilliant fire — the 4.55ct DEW White Moissanite Cushion Solitaire Ring in 18K Gold Vermeil on 925 Sterling Silver, GRA certified. The cushion cut at 4.55ct DEW combines the rounded corners and larger facets of this classic shape with moissanite's exceptional fire performance — producing a stone that is simultaneously romantic in form and spectacular in light output.

What is the cushion cut and why does it produce such distinctive fire?

The cushion cut is a square or rectangular brilliant cut with rounded corners and larger individual facets than the modern round brilliant. Its origins trace to the old-mine cut of the 18th and 19th centuries — the dominant cut before the modern round brilliant was mathematically optimised. The cushion's larger facets produce larger, more visible fire flashes — where a round brilliant creates many small rainbow bursts, a cushion creates fewer but more dramatic, room-sized coloured flashes. At 4.55ct DEW, the cushion's large facets are fully expressive: the fire is bold, slow-moving, and visually arresting in a way that differs fundamentally from the continuous sparkle of a round brilliant. Moissanite's dispersion of 0.104 — 2.4× diamond's — makes this effect extraordinary in the cushion cut.

Is the cushion cut good for everyday wear?

Yes — the cushion cut is one of the most practical cuts for everyday wear. The rounded corners eliminate the sharp points of princess and marquise cuts that can snag and chip. The stone's surface is easier to clean than intricate brilliant facets. At 4.55ct DEW and approximately 10.5mm square, this ring has genuine visual presence without extending significantly beyond the finger's edge — making it comfortable for desk work and daily activities. The cushion cut's soft form is also widely considered one of the most flattering shapes for hands with larger knuckles.
