Favourite cut of diamond

[WBWIFE]

Just that really, trying to decide on a ring to be made and I never, ever wear jewellery but will be wearing this.

Whats your favourite shape diamond?

I thought I loved oval but I'm edging towards pear, seems to sparkle more for some reason

That’s exactly like mine (with a bigger centre stone) - looks stunning. I still can’t take my eyes off it after nearly a year!

Congratulations on your lovely ring 💍

I need pictures people! I like all diamonds but have always done for round brilliant cut. I would love an old cushion cut though.

I think the setting is almost more important than the diamond. These are my 'stand in' wedding and engagement rings in platinum, while my others are being remodelled.

@Soola I nearly passed out with joy seeing your rings!

That's a gorgeous ring op! Will you need to put a band with it? If so what will you go for?

Pinterest is excellent for ideas.

I like the Marquise then Oval cut.

Cushion cut.

Antique rose cut is my favourite.
My Grandmother's engagement ring was a solitaire with that cut, just under a carat. Its teeny though, I can't even get it on my little finger (fat fingers!)

I have a marquise - beautiful/sparkly/unusual...

My ring is cushion cut and I love it, it looks very elegant. Also really like rose cut as it’s unusual but downside is it’s not very sparkly

I like Asscher. My e-ring is an oval, set sideways. I always get compliments on it.

It will look nice and big on your finger

Old European cut is my favourite, the facets are larger than a brilliant cut, so a brilliant sparkles more, but the old European has bigger sparkles.

Anyway, my engagement ring is a cushion cut and I love that too.

I had not heard of Asscher cut but that’s beautiful. I have a brilliant cut; it is certainly very sparkly.

OP, your choice is a very lovely ring, but have a think about wearing a pave band every day and whether that will be comfortable and hard wearing.

Just bought a beautiful 🥕 one for the girlfriend..😃

I think you can’t go wrong with a round brilliant tbh. Lovely classic cut with fire and sparkle. Can be set in lots of different ways

Round brilliant

My ring is little round diamonds set in three squares. It does sparkle a lot, I love it, however one day I would really love an emerald cut solitaire. I just love the Art Deco style.

This is mine,old fashioned setting now but I love it

I love the halo rings. That’s what I’d have if I was in the market for one now.

I'd love an old European cut. They are gorgeous.

I have a very good quality, well cut oval. No bow tie . When we got engaged I was adamant I wanted a small stone so mine is only .33ct but we got a really decent stone. Years later I do wish I'd gone for something a bit bigger though!

Round brilliant have the most sparkle because of the facets and the way they are cut. Emerald/baguettes have slightly less sparkle because they have less facets, having said that they are still 2 of my favourite cuts as I think they look so elegant and timeless

The round brilliant cut is my favourite by far. I love that it has a traditional feel and look.
