Marquise Cut Diamonds

The marquise cut diamond is one of the most popular varieties of fancy shaped diamonds. Technically, it is a boat-shaped modified brilliant cut diamond. The marquise cut can set off a dazzling sparkle with the right cut.

Like other fancy cuts, a certain degree of what constitutes an attractive shape has to do with the customer’s individual taste. The final shape of a finished stone is determined by the rough and what parameters it permits. In general, the most pleasing marquise stone has a length to width ratio between 1.75:1 and 2:1. The typical marquise cut diamonds features 56 facets.

The marquise cut diamonds are available at all levels of the market, which range from the mass merchandiser to the expensive luxury market. But, the quality of diamonds also depends on the particular market level. Marquise shape diamonds are primarily used as center stones for engagement rings. These diamonds are normally ordered by the single piece, and by carat weight.

Compared to the round cuts, the marquise diamonds are not much popular these days. Statistics show that the sales of the marquise cuts have decreased over the past two year. However, some people love the look of marquise cut diamonds as they are quite sophisticated and elegant stones. These cuts also make your fingers appear long and slender. For instance, if your fingers are somewhat short and stout, a marquise cut diamond ring will certainly help counteract this problem and lengthen the look of your fingers. The prices are consistently below those of round diamonds.
