The value of a Diamond Cut is determined by its shine, craftsmanship, and ability to reflect light. Among the most popular options are Round Brilliant Cuts, prized for their spectacular sparkle.
Princess Cuts are another favorite, known for their modern, square shape and high light reflection.
Other prized cuts include Cushion, Emerald, and Oval Cuts, which are known for their elegant appearance.
Each cut's value depends on the diamond's quality and how well the cut enhances its natural beauty. Mark Broumand's collection of diamond engagement rings presents a wide array of valuable Diamond Cuts.
Round Brilliant Cut
Its 57 precisely arranged facets (33 facets on the crown and 25 on the pavilion) maximize light reflection. This cut also stays relevant across generations, maintaining strong demand in the market.
Additionally, the precision required to craft a Round Brilliant Cut Diamond Engagement Ring often results in higher labor costs, further increasing its value.
It works well with various settings which makes it highly sought-after for Engagement Rings and other fine jewelry.
Princess Cut
The Princess Cut is a modern, Square-Shaped Diamond Cut known for its contemporary appeal. It has sharp, angular corners and a pyramid-like profile. Princess Cuts are a popular choice for engagement rings, as their clean lines suit a variety of settings.
This cut also efficiently preserves more of the rough diamond during shaping, making it a cost-effective yet stunning option.
Cushion Cut
The Cushion Cut Diamond has rounded corners and resembles a pillow; it combines vintage charm with excellent brilliance.
This cut features larger facets that enhance the diamond's fire, especially in softer lighting.
The Cushion Cut is also versatile, complementing a variety of styles. Its value lies in its blend of beauty, historical appeal, and ability to showcase the diamond's natural clarity and color. A Cushion Cut Diamond Engagement Ring can also elongate the finger.
Emerald Cut
The Emerald Cut is characterized by its rectangular form and step-cut facets, which create a hall-of-mirrors effect. Unlike Round Brilliant Cuts, which maximize sparkle, the Emerald Cut emphasizes clarity and color, offering an understated elegance.
Its large, open table draws attention to the quality of the stone, making it essential to choose a diamond with excellent clarity for this cut.
Oval Cut
Its oval shape enhances the diamond's surface area, making it appear larger than other cuts of the same carat weight.
This also creates an illusion of length, flattering the wearer's fingers. With 58 facets, similar to the Round Brilliant Cut, the Oval Cut delivers exceptional fire while offering a unique aesthetic.
Oval Cut Diamond Engagement Rings are popular because the diamond’s symmetricity complements many designs. The Oval Cut's mix of sparkle and graceful proportions secures its lasting magnetism.
Pear Cut
The Pear Cut Diamond is a unique blend of the Round Brilliant and Marquise Cuts, resulting in a graceful shape with a single pointed end and a rounded opposite side. This offers remarkable brilliance, thanks to its 58 expertly arranged facets.
The Pear Cut's silhouette can often make the diamond seem bigger than its actual carat weight. A Pear Cut Diamond Engagement Ring can have a multitude of designs, from classic solitaires to intricate halos.
Marquise Cut
The Marquise Diamond Cut creates an illusion of greater size, so it’s preferred by those seeking a larger diamond look without increasing carat weight. The Marquise Cut usually features 58 facets, but depending on the design, it can go up to 71 facets.
Its unique silhouette is often featured in both vintage and modern settings. A Marquise Cut Diamond Engagement Ring is a fantastic accessory to any outfit. This cut requires precision to maintain symmetry and optimal light reflection, making it a striking option for fine jewelry.
Asscher Cut
The Asscher Cut Diamond is a square version of the Emerald Cut, with clipped corners and wide step-cut facets that create a distinct X shape when viewed from above. The high crown and symmetrical aspect contribute to its captivating appearance.
Due to its clear, broad facets, the Asscher Cut requires high clarity diamonds, typically at least VS2, to ensure no visible flaws.
Additionally, to maintain its visual appeal, an Asscher Diamond should have a color grade of at least I, particularly for larger stones. The combination of these features results in an Asscher Cut Diamond Engagement Ring of exceptional beauty.
