Choose Your Diamond Shape

 
Round Cut

The most popular diamond shape, representing approximately 75% of all diamond shape available today. Due to diamond cutter have been
using advanced theories of light behaviour and precise mathematical calculation to optimise the fire and brilliance in a round diamond.

 

Princess Cut

The most popular fancy diamond shape, especially for engagement rings. The princess has pointed corners and is traditionally square in shape.
Choosing the colour grade considering of a J-Colour non-round diamond is exceptional; colour may be slightly visible in its corner.

 

Emerald Cut

The step cuts of its pavilion and its large open table have highlights the clarity of a diamond. 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.

 

 

Asscher Cut

The cut is similar to the emerald cut, but in a square shape with larger step facets, a higher crown, and a smaller table.
These combination often produces more brilliance than the emerald cut

 

 

Marquise Cut

The shape can maximise carat weight, giving much larger-looking diamond. The cut is a football-shaped, modified brilliant cut
as its shape is long and narrow. The cut diamond looks beautiful set with round or pear shaped side stones.

 

 

Oval Cut

It is a modified brilliant cut to possess a similar fire and brilliance. However, oval cut diamonds have added advantage of
an elongated shape which can create illusion of greater size.

 

 

Radiant Cut

It is the first rectangular cut to have a complete brilliant cut facet pattern applied to both crown and pavilion.
The cut looks beautiful set with either baguette or round side diamonds.

 
 

Pear Cut

The unique look of the pear shape is combination of a round and a marquise shape, with a tapered point on one end.
The length of the diamond creates a delicate slimming effect on the fingers.

 


Heart Cut

The unique and ultimate symbol of love, with popular in solitaire pendants as well as rings. Diamonds less than 0.50 carats
may not be a good choice, since the heart shape is more difficult to perceive in smaller diamonds.

 
 

Cushion Cut

The cut combines a square cut with rounded corners, also known as ‘pillow-cut’ diamonds. These larger facets highlight the diamond’s clarity
which increases their brilliance. Cushion cut diamonds are available in shapes ranging from square to rectangular.
