Diamond Shapes

This shape accounts for over 75% of all diamonds sold today. Round is the most popular shape used for engagement rings. It's 58 facet-cut achieves the maximum brilliance a diamond can have, maximising the reflection and refraction of light.

This is one of the most popular fancy-shaped diamonds and is popular for engagement rings. The princess cut is essentially a square version of the round brilliant cut, known technically as a square modified brilliant cut.

An emerald cut diamond can be extremely stunning. It may not have the sparkle of a round brilliant cut, but because of its long lines it tends to produce more dramatic flashes of light.

This shape is a cross between a princess and an emerald cut. It combines the best features of the round brilliant cut, the elegance and trimmed corners of an emerald cut and a squarer shape more similar to the princess cut.

This shape is a variation of the round brilliant cut - elongated with pointed ends. This shape can maximise carat-weight, making the diamond appear much larger, and tends to make your fingers appear long and slender.

Pear shaped diamonds are often called 'teardrop' diamonds. This shape is a combination of the round brilliant and the marquise, a fiery cut with elegant lines and lots of sparkle.

The asscher cut is often referred to as the 'square emerald cut' - because it is square with wide step facets and cropped corners. This cut is designed to draw your eye into the stone.

Baguette cut diamonds are oblong/rectangular, and are similar to emerald cuts but without the cut corners

Certifications / Valuations

You will receive a diamond certificate with any item that has at least one diamond weighing 0.25ct or more (G colour or above), or at least 0.30ct (H & I colour). This is standard practice throughout the industry, in fact, many companies only provide certificates for stones weighing 0.30ct/0.33ct or more. You can see whether your item is certified by looking at your chosen product and selecting 'More Info', where you will also see a logo for a Valuation Document which accompanies every item.

If your item is not certified, it will however be accompanied by a valuation document. This document confirms the carat weight, cut, colour and clarity of your chosen diamond/s, as well as a picture and description of the item. Our valuations are carried out by an experienced FGA (Fellow of the Gemmological Association) and GG (Graduate Gemologist) certified diamond grader, so this document not only gives you an accurate valuation (RRP) of your chosen piece, but it is confirmation of the quality of the diamond/s you have purchased from us.
