Cushion solitaire engagement rings can be paired with various wedding band styles. Popular choices include classic diamond bands, contoured bands that fit around the engagement ring, or even mixed metal bands for a modern and unique look.

While diamonds are commonly used as center stones, you can opt for a colored gemstone such as sapphire or morganite in a cushion solitaire setting to add a pop of color and personalization.

Assessing the quality of a cushion-cut diamond involves considering the 4Cs (cut, clarity, color, and carat weight).

Cushion solitaire engagement rings are available in various metal types such as platinum, white gold, yellow gold, and rose gold. Each metal choice can influence the overall appearance and style of the ring.
