At which ratio is a diamond still considered square?

[cushioncut]

(sorry, I posted in SMTR by mistake)

Hello,

I am looking for a square stone, and so far I''ve been trying to stick to a ratio of no more than 1.05, which still looks square to me. I was wondering when diamond is no longer considered square -- is there an official cut-off? I''ve looked at the shape selectors, but I don''t know if I''m being too picky with my cut-off. Would you consider diamonds with a 1.06 to 1.10 square?

Thanks!

1.05 to 1.00 and less is considered square. 1.06-1.10 to 1.00 would be considered very slightly to slightly rectangular.
