A solitaire elongated cushion cut engagement ring is timeless, allowing this classic cut to shine solo. Setting an elongated cushion cut diamond on our signature slender band causes the focal stone to stand out, heightening the stretched proportions. The Whisper Ring is Melanie’s take on the classic solitaire, holding an elongated cushion cut diamond in place with single prongs. The Threaded Ring adds subtle detail to a traditional solitaire. Delicate triple prongs that resemble stitched thread contour at each soft corner of this elongated cushion cut diamond ring.

Setting an elongated cushion cut at the center of a dynamic cluster of accent diamonds widens the composition, creating contrast between the east-west direction of the cluster and the longer length of the focal diamond. The Pictorial Ring features two round cut diamonds on either side of an elongated cushion cut diamond focal, creating an antique-inspired look that speaks to this cut’s long history. The Myriad Ring ups the accent count, flanking the focal stone with delicate clusters of round cut accent diamonds. A pocket of negative space between the clusters on either side of the elongated cushion cut brings depth to the composition. The Snowdrift Ring and Bezel Snowdrift Ring are elongated cushion cut engagement rings that both feature diamond clusters that appear to move like snow flurries in flight.

A bezel engagement ring outlines the focal stone in a metal frame, highlighting each diamond’s distinct shape. An elongated cushion cut diamond features straight sides and soft corners, and a bezel setting draws attention to this unique combination of curves and edges. The Formation Ring appears to be a classic solitaire bezel set engagement ring, but in reality, it conceals hidden diamonds tucked beneath the elongated cushion cut, expanding brilliant sparkle to every angle. The Evenfall Ring is an elongated cushion cut diamond ring defined by vertical movement. The focal diamond rests in a towering closed basket setting flanked by delicate tapers inlaid with round cut accent diamonds that contrast with the dramatic setting and add vintage appeal to the design.

Like elongated cushion cut engagement rings, wide band engagement rings are on the rise. One of our new additions to the collection, the Perplex Ring, combines these trends into something distinctly MC. Designer Melanie Casey set an elongated cushion cut diamond not only slightly askew, but offset on a wide 6mm flat band. The focal stone appears to be barely connected to the band, hanging weightlessly in space. This unique design allows both the elongated cushion cut and wide band to shine in equal measure.
