Canberra couples are redefining tradition with the growing popularity of East-West cushion cut lab diamond engagement rings — a modern take on timeless elegance. By turning the classic cushion cut horizontally across the finger, the East-West setting delivers a bold aesthetic with a refined touch.
This style stands out from the moment it’s seen. The cushion cut, traditionally set in a north-south orientation, is flipped sideways in the East-West design. This simple yet dramatic shift introduces a contemporary flair while preserving the soft romanticism of the cushion’s gently curved corners and brilliant facets.
Perfectly suited for those who want something elegant yet distinct, the East-West setting is ideal for:
Showcasing the finger with a unique silhouette
Pairing easily with minimalist or curved wedding bands
Offering a sleek, elongated appearance without needing a larger stone
At Diamond Lab, we take this innovative look and enhance it with the brilliance and sustainability of lab-grown diamonds. Each cushion cut stone is expertly selected and certified, ensuring superior fire, brilliance, and proportion. And with ethical sourcing at our core, you can be confident in the origins of your diamond.
