What are the differences between asccher and cushion cut diamonds?

The key differences between these two cuts are in their shape and facets. Shape: The Asscher cut features a square shape with trimmed corners, giving it an almost octagonal appearance. It is known for its step-cut facets and a pronounced depth that enhances the diamond's clarity, compared to a cushion that has a more rounded square or rectangular shape with softened corners, resembling a pillow. Typically, Asscher cut diamonds have 58 facets, which are arranged in a step-cut fashion. These facets create a hall-of-mirrors effect, emphasizing clarity but with less brilliance. Cushion cut diamonds can have varying numbers of facets, usually between 58 and 64. The combination of step-cut and brilliant-cut facets enhances both brilliance and sparkle.

Asscher cut diamonds feature a square shape with delicately cut diamond corners. These clipped edges create ascending step cuts, designing a staircase of stunning sparkle that look magnificent in wedding bands.
