A quick take on choosing the perfect diamond shape

If you are reading this article, you probably are looking for gifting your partner a unique present such as diamond pendants or you may be looking for a diamond ring to propose her. Whatever be the reason, you have come to the right place. Here, we will discuss diamond shapes.

A diamond’s shape is often something that is overlooked by most diamond guides @ http://www.ellissi.com/diamond-buying-guide/. However, it is an essential factor while choosing a present for your loved one. The shapes may be –Cushion, Marquise, princess, Asscher, emerald, radiant, heart shaped, oval among others.

Let us take a look at two trendy diamond shapes, which will make your gift or proposal even more special.
  1. Cushion cut diamonds:

    A cushion shape diamond is square or rectangular with varying size and depth measures. Such diamonds have large open facets. This means that if you opt for jewellery with high clarity cushion shaped diamonds, it will reflect more light. These sorts of diamonds set in beautiful metal (gold or platinum bands) are best worn by women with long fingers.
  2. Marquise Cut Diamond:

    Also known as “Navette cut”, this is one of the most ancient type of diamond cut available. This is why a Marquise diamond ring is often preferred when it comes to choosing antique engagement rings. The shape is long oval with pointed ends on two sides. These are best used in custom wedding rings, set as per customers’ requirements.

To Conclude
These are two diamond shapes, which are forever in trend. So, if you are looking for buying diamond jewelry as a gift or a diamond engagement ring, consider these shapes. Good luck!
