Cushion Cut Engagement Rings – Use Candles

Cushion Cut Engagement Rings and Female Vocabulary

There are certain commonly used words in the feminine vernacular that make the average man tremble when they are mentioned. Included within this fear-inducing catalogue of words is, engagement, cushion and rings. To reduce the stoic composure of a football-watching, fire-breathing, 300-loving modern man to a bundle of confusion, all a girlfriend needs to do is combine these three words into the neat phrase, “cushion cut engagement ring.”

Qualifying a diamond ring with the word cushion is frightening for two reasons; firstly, the average guy finds cushions completely superfluous; secondly, he has no idea what she is talking about. These factors when combined with the obvious stress of getting engaged could easily drive a man to engage in research on drink-induced comas.

The modern era has resulted in all research being conducted on the internet. The internet has become the unlimited encyclopedia of everything and this also applies to things like engagement rings. In an effort to help reduce the ignorance of the male population we have decided to provide you with some basic information on cushion cut engagement rings.

If your research started on the internet then you have done very well, because cushion cut engagement rings are most easily purchased on the internet. This style of diamond cutting dates back to the candlelit 1800s. It is said that the cushion cut allows the diamond to shine most prominently under candlelight. The invention of light bulbs and the steady degradation of romance mean that candles have become an unpopular source of lighting and cushion cut diamond rings have consequently become difficult to find.

Most women are happy to settle for a more modern style of ring, but there is always that one girl who happens to be a little different and you are the lucky guy who gets to date her. Some girls enjoy the retro look of a diamond which is cut to resemble one of those useless couch cushions (hence the name).  The diamond, once attained, can also be mounted onto a ring of your choice. This means that the vintage diamond can be imported into the modern age and it won’t look as though your girlfriend is wearing a dinosaur relic as a sign of her devotion to you.

Now that you know what a cushion cut engagement rings are, you can get back to watching ‘300’ for the 300th and relax, knowing that the internet can prepare you for almost any new dilemma.
