Cushion cut engagement rings – Why are they different than other diamond cuts?

A few facts about cushion cut engagement rings:

Cushion cut diamonds got their name since they resemble a stuffed pillow or a cushion. Back in the 18^th century people didn't have all the surrounding lights that gave diamonds the entire extra spark. 

Jewelers then, looked for a diamond cut which will “catch” candle lights in the widest spectrum, since that was the only light source at night. Engagement rings can come in several shapes such as a cushion, rectangle, square (princess), round or oval.

Cushion cut diamonds have 60 facets (the smooth and polished parts that make up a stone's surface) and a thick looking stone with rounded corners that makes them very attractive and really hard to ignore.
