3.07 ct Cushion Laboratory-Grown Diamond

89/100 · Refined

A strong candidate on paper; confirm its light pattern in imagery.

What reads well

  • A 1.31:1 length-to-width ratio sits in the classic cushion range.
  • Face-up spread (9.64 × 7.36 mm) is typical or better for a 3.07 ct cushion.
  • Table 60% and depth 64.1% fall in the typical cushion range.
  • F color is in the colorless range.
  • VS1 clarity is typically eye-clean in a cushion.

What deserves a closer look

  • Screening only: for this cushion, check images or video of the exact stone for the facet pattern (bold, chunky flashes or finer "crushed ice") and any dark areas under the table.
  • Treatment status is not stated on the report. For a laboratory-grown diamond, ask whether it is as-grown or post-growth treated.

The reading, field by field

Table · Ideal
At 60%, the table sits within the typical 56–66% range for a cushion, balancing brightness with fire.
Total depth · Ideal
64.1% is within the typical 61–69% range for a cushion, keeping weight where it contributes to face-up size and light return.
Length-to-width · Ideal
A 1.31:1 outline is within the classic 1–1.35:1 range for a cushion.
Polish · Ideal
Excellent polish is the top finish grade — facets are cleanly executed with nothing that would soften sparkle.
Symmetry · Favorable
Very Good symmetry is a fine result; the difference from Excellent is rarely visible without magnification.
Girdle · Ideal
Slightly Thick To Thick (Faceted): a durable girdle thickness that doesn't hide meaningful weight.
Culet · Ideal
Pointed: no visible culet facet when viewed face-up.
Color · Ideal
F is in the colorless range and faces up white in any metal.
Clarity · Favorable
VS1 is typically eye-clean.
Fluorescence · Ideal
None: no meaningful effect on appearance.

What to check on the exact stone

  • Does this cushion produce broad, chunky flashes or small needle-like crushed-ice sparkle?
  • Does this CVD diamond show any brown or gray undertone face-up in daylight?
  • With Very Good symmetry, are any facet junctions visibly misaligned?
  • Can you show me the inscribed report number under a loupe before it is set?
