1. Old Mine Cushion Petal Solitaire Diamond Ring
2.00 CT · EF/VS · Nature-inspired
If you're drawn to antique-inspired engagement rings but want something a little softer than a traditional solitaire, this petal setting is an excellent choice. The sculpted petal prongs gently cradle the Cushion Old Mine lab grown diamond, highlighting its rounded corners and open culet while adding subtle floral detail without overpowering the center stone.
Why we picked it: The petal prongs enhance the antique character of the Old Mine Cushion Cut instead of competing with it, making the diamond the focal point from every angle.
Best for: Someone who loves understated vintage jewelry with delicate floral detailing or wants a nature-inspired engagement ring.
Pairs beautifully with: A slim curved wedding band or a classic diamond eternity band that follows the shape of the petal setting without hiding its details.
2. Old Mine Cushion Hidden Halo Ring
1.80 CT · EF/VS · Bezel Set
A hidden halo adds extra brilliance beneath the Old Mine Cushion lab grown diamond without changing its classic vintage appearance from the top. The elongated center stone creates a larger finger coverage, while the concealed halo catches light from every angle for subtle, unexpected sparkle.
Why we picked it: It enhances the diamond's presence without taking away from the chunky facets and antique charm that make an Old Mine Diamond so distinctive.
Best for: Anyone who wants a larger-looking center stone with a touch of hidden sparkle.
Pairs well with: A simple flush-fit wedding band that keeps the focus on the hidden halo and center diamond.
3. Three-Stone Old Mine Cushion with Tapered Baguettes
2.10 CT Center · EF/VS · Tapered Baguettes
If you want a ring with more presence without increasing the center stone size, this design does it exceptionally well. The tapered baguettes naturally widen the silhouette, making the elongated Old Mine Cushion appear even more striking while keeping the proportions clean and balanced.
What stands out: The crisp lines of the baguettes contrast beautifully with the soft, hand-cut character of the center diamond, giving the ring a subtle Art Deco influence.
Ideal for: Someone who wants extra finger coverage and a classic three-stone design that never feels overdone.
Style tip: Pair it with a plain wedding band to let the center stone and baguette accents remain the focal point.
4. Old Mine Cushion Double Bezel Ring
3.90 CT · EF/VS · Thick Bezel
The double bezel is one of the most sought-after settings for vintage-inspired engagement rings, and it's easy to see why. It creates a bold frame around the Old Mine Cushion lab diamond, drawing attention to its soft outline while giving the ring a clean, sculptural look. The result is a design that feels both heritage-inspired and unmistakably modern.
Why it stands out: The layered bezel naturally emphasizes the diamond's shape, making the center stone appear even more defined while offering excellent protection for everyday wear.
Ideal for: Anyone who loves bold, minimalist jewelry with vintage character.
Style tip: Pair it with a plain gold band to let the double bezel remain the focal point.
5. Old Mine Cushion Classic Compass Solitaire
3.40 CT · EF/VS · Tab Prongs
The compass setting gives this solitaire a different look from the moment you see it. With the prongs placed at the top, bottom, and sides of the diamond instead of the corners, the elongated Old Mine Cushion looks longer and more open, allowing its broad facets to take center stage.
What stands out: The compass prongs change the entire look of a classic solitaire without adding extra details or side stones.
Ideal for: Anyone who wants a clean solitaire that feels a little different from the traditional four-prong setting.
Style tip: A plain gold wedding band keeps the focus on the compass setting, while a slim pavé band adds just enough sparkle without changing its clean look.
6. Old Mine Cushion Sleek Bezel Solitaire
3.45 CT · EF/VS · Delicate Bezel
An elongated Old Mine Cushion and a smooth bezel make a combination you don't see every day. The bezel follows the diamond's shape instead of hiding it, giving the stone a clean outline while making its length stand out even more.
What stands out: The bezel softens the edges of the elongated cushion, creating a ring that's bold without feeling bulky.
Ideal for: Anyone looking for a low-profile ring that can handle everyday wear without giving up on a larger center stone.
Style tip: Pair it with a slim gold band or a contour wedding band that follows the bezel's shape.
7. Old Mine Cushion Blue Diamond Ring
3.00 CT Blue · VS · Side Stones
Old Mine Cushion diamonds are already uncommon, and seeing one in blue makes it even more memorable. The elongated blue center stone is framed by marquise side diamonds that resemble delicate leaves, adding shape without taking attention away from the color.
What stands out: The cool blue center paired with vintage faceting creates a look that's completely different from a traditional white diamond engagement ring.
Ideal for: Anyone looking for an engagement ring that steps away from classic white diamonds without sacrificing the character of an old mine cut diamond.
Style tip: Pair it with a plain platinum or white gold band to keep the blue diamond as the main focus.
8. Old Mine Cushion Wide Band Solitaire
1.00 CT · EF/VS · Tapered Band
This solitaire replaces the traditional slim band with a flat, wide shank that tapers as it reaches the center stone. The transition naturally draws the eye to the square Old Mine Cushion, while the wider band gives the ring a stronger, more structured look.
What stands out: The tapered wide band adds presence without competing with the center diamond, creating a clean design that's both comfortable and eye-catching.
Ideal for: Anyone who prefers substantial bands over delicate settings and wants a solitaire with a more contemporary profile.
Style tip: Pair it with a slim wedding band to highlight the contrast between the wide shank and the center stone.
9. Old Mine Cushion Halo Engagement Ring
1.70 CT · EF/VS · Diamond Accents
A halo isn't just about adding sparkle. On this ring, the milgrain halo frames the square Old Mine Cushion much like antique rings from the Edwardian and Art Deco eras, giving the center diamond a fuller appearance while preserving its vintage feel.
What stands out: The milgrain detailing softens the halo, so it complements the Old Mine Cushion instead of overpowering it.
Ideal for: Anyone who wants a ring with extra presence while staying true to antique-inspired design.
Style tip: Pair it with a pavé wedding band or a plain band to let the halo remain the centerpiece.
10. Three-Stone Old Mine Cushion Ring
3.00 CT Center · 1.40 TCW Side Stones · MN/VS & EF/VS
Instead of matching every diamond, this design pairs a warm-toned Old Mine Cushion with brighter white side stones. The subtle contrast draws your eye to the center diamond, while the matching Old Mine diamond side stones create a look that's rarely seen in modern engagement rings.
What stands out: Using Old Mine Cushions for all three diamonds gives the ring a consistent antique look, while the warmer center stone adds depth and character.

How to Choose the Right Old Mine Cushion Engagement Ring
Pick the Shape That Suits Your Style
If you want a diamond that creates a longer, finger-lengthening look, choose an elongated Old Mine Cushion like #1, #2, #3, #5, #6, or #7. Prefer a more traditional antique silhouette? A square or soft-square Old Mine Cushion, such as #4, #8, or #9, stays true to the original cut.
Choose a Setting That Fits Your Lifestyle
Your setting plays a big role in both the look and practicality of your ring. Bezel settings (#4 and #6) offer added protection for everyday wear, while halo designs (#2 and #9) create a larger face-up appearance. If you prefer a cleaner look, a classic solitaire (#5 and #8) keeps all the attention on the center diamond. For a closer look at the pros and cons of each style, explore our guide to the Best Setting for Old Mine Cushion Cut Diamond Engagement Rings.
Find the Right Carat Size
Old Mine Cushion rings are available in a wide range of sizes, from a classic 1-carat solitaire (#8) to bold 3 to 4-carat statement rings (#4, #5, and #6). Choosing a lab-grown diamond makes it easier to enjoy a larger center stone without the price tag of a natural antique diamond.
Select Your Metal
Yellow and rose gold enhance the warmer tones often associated with vintage-inspired diamonds, while white gold and platinum create a brighter, cleaner contrast, especially for higher-color diamonds and colored designs like #7.
Make It Your Own
Every ring can be customized to match your preferences, including the diamond shape, carat weight, color, clarity, setting, and metal. If you have a specific design in mind, you can also create a completely custom Old Mine Cushion engagement ring.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why are lab-grown Old Mine Cushion rings more affordable than antique diamonds?
Authentic antique Old Mine Cushion diamonds are rare, making them significantly more expensive. Lab-grown diamonds offer the same vintage appearance, along with excellent color and clarity options, at a much more accessible price.
Should I choose a square or elongated Old Mine Cushion?
It depends on the look you prefer. Elongated Old Mine Cushions create a finger-lengthening effect and have become increasingly popular, while square Old Mine Cushions stay true to the proportions of original antique cuts.
Do Old Mine Cushion diamonds sparkle differently?
Yes. Unlike modern brilliant-cut diamonds, Old Mine Cushions produce broader, slower flashes of light thanks to their larger facets. Many people describe this as a warm, candlelit sparkle.
Which setting looks best for an Old Mine Cushion engagement ring?
There's no single best setting. Solitaires highlight the diamond's shape, bezel settings provide extra protection, and halo or three-stone designs add more presence. The right choice depends on your personal style and daily lifestyle.
Is a bezel setting a good choice?
Yes. Bezel settings are one of the most secure options for an engagement ring, making them ideal for everyday wear. They also complement the soft outline of an Old Mine Cushion, giving the ring a clean, vintage-inspired appearance.
Which metal works best with an Old Mine Cushion diamond?
Yellow and rose gold enhance the warm character of Old Mine Cushion diamonds, while white gold and platinum create a brighter, more contemporary contrast. The best choice comes down to your personal preference.
Can I customize my Old Mine Cushion engagement ring?
Yes. Every ring can be customized to your preferred carat weight, length-to-width ratio, metal, diamond color, clarity, and setting style, allowing you to create a design that's uniquely yours.
Are lab-grown Old Mine Cushion diamonds durable enough for everyday wear?
Absolutely. Lab-grown diamonds have the same 10/10 hardness on the Mohs scale as mined diamonds, making them an excellent choice for daily wear when paired with a well-designed setting.
What wedding band pairs best with an Old Mine Cushion engagement ring?
A plain metal band is a classic choice for solitaires and three-stone rings, while pavé or diamond bands add extra brilliance. Bezel and halo settings often pair well with curved or contour wedding bands for a comfortable, seamless fit.
