Cushion Cut Moissanite Solitaire Engagement Rings in Canberra
Timeless, romantic, and softly radiant — the cushion cut moissanite solitaire ring is a favourite among Canberra couples who value classic elegance with a modern conscience. At Diamond Lab, our handcrafted solitaire rings showcase the beauty of cushion moissanite in its purest form, allowing the stone’s fire and brilliance to take centre stage in a sleek, uncluttered setting.
Why Choose a Cushion Cut Moissanite?
The cushion cut combines the soft edges of an oval with the geometry of a square, resulting in a gemstone that exudes both vintage charm and modern brilliance. Its pillow-like shape and large facets enhance moissanite’s light performance, creating a ring that glows rather than flashes. For Canberra couples seeking gentle sparkle with a romantic silhouette, cushion is the ideal cut.
At Diamond Lab, we use only premium D colour, VVS1 clarity moissanite, ensuring your centre stone is crystal clear, perfectly cut, and full of fire.
Solitaire Setting: Simplicity at Its Finest
A solitaire engagement ring features one central stone, unaccompanied by side accents, halos, or pavé. This setting allows your cushion cut moissanite to shine in all its glory, without visual distractions. Its timeless elegance speaks to couples who appreciate restraint, balance, and long-lasting beauty.
Solitaire rings are also incredibly versatile — pairing seamlessly with wedding bands, eternity bands, or remaining striking on their own. In Canberra’s polished yet understated style landscape, the cushion solitaire fits right in.
Moissanite vs. Diamond: Why Ethical Brilliance Wins
For the ethically minded, lab-grown moissanite is a powerful alternative to mined diamonds. It offers greater brilliance, comparable durability, and a conflict-free origin — all at a more accessible price point. Moissanite ranks 9.25 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it perfectly suited for everyday wear.
In a place like Canberra, where environmental and social values are increasingly prioritised, choosing moissanite is both a style and a statement.
Custom Design Made in Australia
Each Diamond Lab ring is handcrafted to order in Australia, using ethical materials and sustainable practices. We never use recycled settings or pre-made mounts — every ring is custom-built for its wearer, ensuring precision and personality at every stage.
You can choose your metal — 14k or 18k white, yellow, or rose gold, or platinum — as well as the band width, profile, setting height, and stone size. Prefer a more elongated cushion? A specific ratio? We can custom cut your moissanite to suit your vision.
Why Cushion Cut Solitaires Are Popular in Canberra
Canberra couples love the cushion cut for its romantic curves and timeless aesthetic. The solitaire setting complements the cut perfectly — offering simplicity that feels fresh and meaningful. Whether you’re in Deakin, O’Connor, Barton or beyond, this ring style blends effortlessly with the city’s refined, values-forward culture.
Our clients appreciate the subtle elegance of a well-proportioned cushion stone, especially when set in a low-profile claw setting that offers both comfort and strength.
