Oval Cut Styles Engagement Rings

Known for their unique charm and flattering design, oval engagement rings are the perfect choice for the bride-to-be who adores classic elegance. Oval engagement rings have captivated hearts for generations with their elongated shape that has the magical effect of lengthening the finger, creating a slender profile on the hand.

Oval cut diamonds are a slightly more elongated version of a classic round brilliant cut. They are finished off with rounded ends. Oval cut shape engagement rings tend to look larger than round brilliant rings of a similar size, due to their longer shape. Oval cuts are similar to marquise cut diamonds, but with rounded rather than pointed ends.
