Marquise Magic: The Diamond Cut That Commands Attention
Marquise diamond cut is famous for its unique and elegant shape that defines the luxury and refined personality that’s instantly recognisable.
King Louis XV of France commissioned the royal origin of Marquise Diamond rings in the 18th century to resemble the lips of his mistress, Madame de Pompadour.
Marquise rings are engagement or fashion rings that showcase a marquise-cut diamond.
Associated with royalty, nobility, and high fashion, it is an inherently luxurious legacy.
Why Marquise Diamonds Captivate Hearts
Rings are graceful and admirable because of that oval-cut diamond – it’s bold, eye-catching, and makes fingers look slimmer and longer.
The Marquise cut is known as a navette-shaped stone, which is a narrow oval with pointed ends. This cut makes the diamond appear bigger than it really is, which shows maximum sparkle without going over budget.
Whether the vintage vibes or modern styles, there’s something magical about a marquise ring that just commands attention in any room.
For the reason that it has a slim shape, the marquise diamond covers more surface area on the finger compared to other diamond rings with the same carat weight. It enhances the visual of a bigger size than other diamonds with equal weight. This feature attracts people who prefer a bold look.
Top Styles to Showcase Marquise Diamond
Classic Solitaire – The Solitaire setting is a very classic and timeless choice where a marquise diamond stands on a simple band. This setting draws all eyes to its uniqueness and the brilliance of the diamond. It’s perfect if needed a clean, and stylish look.
Halo setting – The halo setting is very premium and glamorous. In this setting, the centre oval-cut diamond is surrounded by smaller diamonds. This makes it more sparkling and also makes the centre stone appear larger than it actually is.
Three-stone setting – The three-stone setting is very famous for the symbol of love and commitment and well-known for engagement rings. In this setting, the marquise diamond in the centre is flanked by two smaller side stones. This setting symbolises the past, present, and future and adds extra glimmer while emphasising the elongated shape of the marquise.
Price and value of a Marquise diamond
The marquise diamond offers great value for money, because the shape of the diamond is long and narrow, so it looks larger than a round or square diamond with the same carat weight. That means getting the diamond that appears bigger on the finger without even paying for extra carats.
In comparison to the popular Round Brilliant cut, the Marquise diamond is less expensive per carat.
A Marquise diamond cut will have better shine and less bow-tie effect (a dark shadow across the centre).
A poorly cut marquise may look dull or uneven, which lowers its value — even if the size is big.
