How To Use This Index
Do not rely only on price and carat weight
A cushion diamond search should not rely only on price and carat weight. Cushion diamonds vary widely in outline, faceting and visual character, so ratio, brightness, depth, table, colour and face-up spread all need consideration.
Lab-grown pricing may allow higher grades, while natural diamond value often improves when colour, clarity, eye-clean appearance and beautiful outline are balanced carefully.
| Cushion diamond factor | What to check |
|---|---|
| Outline style | Choose soft square, classic cushion or elongated cushion proportions. |
| Facet pattern | Compare chunky facets, cushion brilliant styles and modified/crushed-ice looks. |
| Length-to-width ratio | Compare square, softly rectangular and elongated cushion ratios. |
| Bow-tie risk | Check video, 360 view or in-person appearance, especially for elongated cushions. |
| Colour | D–G is a bright premium to near-colourless range. |
| Clarity | Check inclusions under the table, near corners and within bright areas. |
| Certificate | Review GIA, IGI or equivalent grading report details. |

Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs
What is the Cushion Diamond Search Index?
It is a GemTrove content page that helps customers access and compare cushion diamond search paths for natural and lab-grown diamonds.
Can I search both natural and lab-grown cushion diamonds?
Yes. The page separates natural and lab-grown cushion diamond links so customers can compare both pathways.
What colour range does the index focus on?
The PDF focuses on premium to near-colourless D–G colour ranges for many cushion diamond search links.
What clarity ranges are included?
The index includes higher clarity filters for lab-grown diamonds and broader value ranges for natural diamonds depending on the link group.
Why should cushion diamonds be reviewed beyond carat weight?
Cushion diamonds vary by outline, facet pattern, ratio, depth, table and visible spread, so carat alone is not enough.
Do cushion diamonds have bow-tie risk?
Elongated cushions can show bow-tie or contrast patterns, so video, 360 view or in-person review is helpful.
Are square and elongated cushions different?
Yes. Square cushions feel more classic and balanced, while elongated cushions can provide more finger coverage and a graceful modern look.
Should this search index be published immediately?
No. It should remain draft/noindex until all filtered diamond search target URLs are checked in V16.
Does the index link to education pages?
Yes. It links to diamond shape, 4Cs, cut, colour, clarity, carat, bow-tie and certificate education pages.
Can GemTrove help choose from the search results?
Yes. GemTrove can provide gemologist-led guidance on origin, certificate, spread, appearance and value.
