Shape
The marquise cut, somewhat similar to oval and pear shaped diamonds, has pointed ends and elegant, curved sides. It is the diamond shape with the largest surface area of all popular cuts, which means that you can find a larger-looking diamond for the same value.
The marquise cut diamond is a great choice for an engagement ring if you are looking for a diamond that will elongate your finger. King Louis XIV of France, who wanted a new diamond shape for the woman he loved – Marquise de Pompadour - commissioned the marquise cut. It is said that he wanted the diamond to be reminiscent of her smile. Because of this, the marquise shape has very romantic connotations.
If you are looking to make your marquise cut diamond appear larger, try a halo setting. Or let this unique cut stand out in a solitaire setting.
Because the marquise cut diamond has pointed ends, it is prone to chipping. Be sure to choose a setting that will protect the pointed ends.
Ring Style
Solitaire engagement rings are the most popular setting style at Ritani. A benefit to solitaire engagement rings is that they are lower maintenance - rings with diamonds in the band can sometimes fall out. They also tend to be less expensive than other setting styles since they feature a plain band. Additionally, solitaire engagement rings are easy to pair with any wedding ring. Round solitaire engagement rings are a classic choice. Oval solitaire engagement rings are growing in popularity and offer a distinctive look. Looking for a rose gold solitaire engagement ring or a yellow gold solitaire engagement ring? Save some money by going down lower on the diamond's color scale. The warm hues of these metals will complement the diamond well.
Metal
Rose Gold has a pinkish color and has become very popular for engagement rings. It's unique color and romantic appeal will make your diamond stand out among the other rings.
