Why Sydney Couples Love the East-West Cushion Ring
The cushion cut is known for its soft curves, vintage charm, and timeless elegance. When rotated into an east-west orientation, it takes on an entirely new personality — sleek, bold, and effortlessly modern. This style has become increasingly popular with Sydney couples who want a ring that makes a subtle but stylish statement.
Whether you're walking the coastline at Bondi or enjoying dinner in Barangaroo, an east-west cushion ring stands out with sophistication. It reflects individuality while staying rooted in romantic tradition.
What Makes Cushion Cut Moissanite So Special?
Brilliance with a Soft Edge
Cushion moissanite blends the sparkle of a round brilliant with the structure of a square or rectangular shape. Rounded corners and larger facets maximise fire, creating a glowing, pillow-like effect that’s incredibly eye-catching — especially in an east-west setting.
Ideal for Every Hand Shape
Set horizontally, the cushion cut elongates the finger and offers a wider visual spread, making it a flattering choice for every wearer. The orientation brings a fresh, fashion-forward perspective while maintaining timeless appeal.
