Why Cushion Necklaces Are So Loved
The cushion cut—also known as the “pillow cut”—blends the romantic curves of a round cut with the strong angles of a square cut, offering a vintage aesthetic with brilliant sparkle. Its timeless shape and soft edges make it one of the most desired cuts for both engagement rings and necklaces. In necklace form, cushion necklaces offer a refined look that feels both classic and fresh.
Whether you choose a glowing cushion cut diamond necklace, a vibrant cushion cut sapphire necklace, or a subtle and chic cushion cut pendant necklace, each piece delivers elegance with substance.
