Get Lost in the Luminescence of an Asscher Cut Diamond Ring
If you take 58 step-cut facets fashioned in a quadrilateral parallel array, you create a mirror-like reflection of light that is the signature look of the Asscher cut diamond ring. This turn-of-the-20th century creation was the namesake of Joseph Asscher, whose family still designs diamonds today. Often loosely referred to as a "squared emerald cut", this label simply describes the shape of the stone, since the facet patterns are very distinctive in an Asscher cut diamond. This special cut is reminiscent of the Art Deco period, hitting its apex of popularity during the 1920s-1930s. If you love the jewelry of this era, look into the incandescent beauty of the emerald cut diamond ring as an alternative to the Asscher.
The 1.73ct Asscher cut center diamond in this beautiful halo style engagement ring is GIA certified, I-VVS1. It is a very bright white and nearly flawless. The cut, polish and symmetry of this center stone is graded as excellent. Pavé set diamonds accent the ring throughout, immediately surrounding the highlight diamond in a halo. Additional round diamonds also extend halfway down the shank in a pavé setting. Milgrain details add extra flashes of light, bordering all fine edges of this platinum ring.
The 1.01ct Asscher centered in this engagement ring is GIA certified at D-SI1; it is colorless, bright and eye clean. This handpicked center stone has a phenomenal cut and it shines when viewed from every angle. The round brilliant cut diamonds are pavé set and extend halfway down the shank, adding even more brilliance to this platinum ring. The setting is dainty and perfectly balances out the center diamond by adding just the right touch of fire for accent. This ring is the perfect compromise for someone that wants a little added flair to an Asscher cut diamond solitaire.
The featured 0.86ct Asscher cut center diamond is GIA certified at E-IF. It is exceptionally white and flawless in clarity. Not only is the cut listed as excellent, but the polish and symmetry are all graded excellent on this magnificent gem as well. The platinum setting showcases it beautifully with a halo of round diamonds in a micropavé setting. The unique split shank is also set with round diamonds. The center basket is intricately detailed with handmade filigree touches that compliment the additional round brilliants.
Those that appreciate the clarity of a diamond presented in a clean, angular and symmetrical fashion will absolutely love their Asscher cut diamond ring. Though this cut is nearly 100 years old, the unique facet pattern can easily blend into a contemporary ring setting as well as in its natural Art Deco styles.
