Brilliant Cut Diamond (Round)
The round brilliant cut diamond is by far the most popular and most researched diamond shape available today. For almost 100 years, diamond cutters have been using advanced theories of light behaviour and precise mathematical calculations to optimise the fire and brilliance in a round diamond. In addition to being the most popular and researched shape, a round diamond will typically give you more flexibility in terms of balancing cut, colour, and clarity grades while still getting the fire and brilliance you want.
To maximise the brilliance of a traditional round diamond, select one in the two highest cut grades, ideal or very good, and choose ideal, excellent, or very good polish and symmetry grades.
Princess
This is our most popular non-round diamond. It’s beautiful brilliance and unique cut makes it a favorite for engagement rings. It is particularly complementary to beautiful long finger. The radiant princess diamond has pointed corners and is traditionally square in shape that is an exemplary fashion to capture the brilliance and smooth luxury of a round and still be in vogue.
Asscher
There is nothing more sophisticated or elegant than an Asscher diamond. It is almost indistinguishable from the emerald cut aside from its larger step facets, dramatically cut corners and square shape. Also, because of its proportions, it typically has more light reflection and fire than an emerald shaped diamond. As with the emerald diamond, the Asscher diamond also has a certain antique, elegant air about it.
Emerald
The Emerald shape was originally developed for the cutting of emeralds, thus the name. Less fiery, the long lines and dramatic flashes of light give the emerald cut an elegant appeal in specially a ring. Instead of the sparkle of a brilliant-cut, emerald cut diamonds produce a hall-of-mirrors effect, with the interplay of light and dark planes. This is a shape that speaks content about venerable glamour and enduring charm and favoured by such style icons as Grace Kelly and Jackie O!
Marquise
Marquise is a fancy gemstone cut that is long and pointed at both the ends. This cut beautifully maximises the carat weight that makes the stone appear larger and more brilliant in a ring. This brilliant-cut diamond looks beautiful set with round or pear-shaped side stones, and the length of the marquise makes fingers appear long and slender.
Heart
The heart shape is a universal symbol of love. As the name suggests, heart shape diamond represents your true heart feelings.The unique look of the heart-shaped diamond helps make it a distinctive choice for a variety of diamond jewellery specially rings. This is the best shape to express that you are in love and in vogue as well!!-
Cushion
As the name says, cushion shape diamond is simulated with a pillow shape. Often found in square, rectangle shape with curved corners, this is one of the rare shapes in diamonds.The cushion cut’s large facets allow for great light dispersion. These larger facets highlight the diamond’s clarity, so if you choose an SI clarity grade, be sure to review the clarity plot on the diamond certificate.
Pear
A stunning choice for making proposals, the pear cut diamond in rounded shape from one side and pointed from the other is best suited for pendants and earrings.Once gifted to Elizabeth Taylor by her two-time-husband Richard Burton, the pear, or tear drop as it is sometimes called, is a unique shape that adorns feminism.
Oval
Slightly rare and more elongated round; an oval diamond has beautiful brilliance that’s similar to a round diamond. Accentuated with the two corner diamonds, Oval diamonds are very popular as their length can accentuate long, slender fingers.
Radiant
A brilliant shape with 70 awesome facets has it all to impress a jewel connoisseur. Glamorously bringing out the elegance of round and emerald, Radiant shape is both dramatic and subtle choice to ornament an engagement or wedding ring.
Trillion
Curved or straight sides are a matter of personal preference, but sides should be equal and even. There are two different variations of these cuts. The curved cut used for single, centre stones, and the in-curved cut used as side stones.Often used as the side stone in jewellery, Trillion cut diamonds brilliantly embellish the fire of a centre stone and this triangular cut could make for a bold and dramatic solitaire. Besides the trillion has an impressive effect as a centre stone in jewellery.
