Diamond Shapes

The ten shapes, at a glance.

Round, oval, emerald, pear and more — how each shape wears.

Shape is the outline of the diamond. Cut is how well it's faceted. Each shape has its own personality and price behaviour.

Round Brilliant

Most brilliant, most expensive per carat. Timeless.

Oval

Elongates the finger, looks 10–15% larger than a round of the same weight. Watch for the "bow-tie" — we hand-pick to avoid it.

Emerald

Long step-cut facets, understated elegance. Shows clarity — buy VS or better.

Cushion

Soft square with rounded corners. Warm and romantic; excellent value.

Pear

Teardrop shape. Distinctive, feminine and slimming on the hand.

Marquise, Radiant, Princess, Asscher, Heart

All available. Each has strengths — we'll walk you through them in your appointment.
