Diamond Shapes
CHAPTER 01

The Round Brilliant: Perfect Fire

The most researched and popular shape in the world. It is scientifically optimized for maximum sparkle. With 58 facets, it is the only shape that can achieve a perfect 'Ideal' cut grade, making it the ultimate choice for classic brilliance.

CHAPTER 02

The Oval Cut: Modern Elegance

Ovals are a contemporary favorite. Because of their elongated shape, they often look larger than round diamonds of the same carat weight. They also create a flattering, lengthening effect on the wearer's finger.

CHAPTER 03

The Emerald Cut: The Hall of Mirrors

This is a 'step-cut' diamond with long, parallel facets. It does not sparkle with fire like a round diamond; instead, it offers a sophisticated flash known as the 'Hall of Mirrors' effect. This shape requires high clarity stones, as it shows everything inside.

CHAPTER 04

The Pear & Marquise: Bold Statements

These shapes are for the individualist. The Pear (Teardrop) is romantic and unique, while the Marquise (Navette) is the most efficient shape for making a diamond look much larger than its actual weight suggests.

CHAPTER 05

The Cushion & Radiant: The Romantic Blend

Cushion cuts have rounded corners and larger facets, giving them a 'crushed ice' look that is very vintage and feminine. Radiant cuts combine the square lines of an emerald cut with the fire of a round brilliant.
