Marquise Cut Engagement Rings

A marquise cut diamond features 58 facets and an elliptical shape with pointed ends. And its traditional, long, narrow shape looks stunning on a ring finger, often credited for making a finger appear longer and more slender. Often named Best Engagement Ring, our marquise cut engagement rings continue to be a popular choice.

What should I look for when buying a marquise shape engagement ring?

Marquise diamonds, although they can be used in other pieces of jewellery, they are most commonly placed in engagement ring settings. Here are a few things to know before purchasing a marquise cut diamond engagement ring.

Watch out for chips – The sharp ends of the marquise cut are often susceptible to chipping if not protected properly by the jewelry setting. 

Look for symmetry – The two points at the ends of a marquise diamond need to align perfectly with one another. The smallest imperfection of the symmetrical element of a marquise diamond will affect the balance of your ring when it is finally set.

Look for hints of colour – Because of their antique history and slender shape, many buyers might prefer marquise diamonds with a slight tint of color in them such as I-J graded diamonds, rather than colorless diamonds.
