The Distinctive Beauty of Marquise Solitaire Engagement Rings
The Marquise cut has a grand royal history that dates back to the 18th century. It was commissioned by King Louis XV of France to resemble the lips of his mistress, the Marquise de Pompadour. Today, the marquise cut solitaire diamond engagement rings are valued for their elongated outline with tapered ends, which creates the illusion of a larger stone. At Flawless, the marquise solitaire rings are made to maximise the cut’s delicate proportions, light balance, and royal heritage.
How the Marquise Solitaire Enhances Brilliance and Size?
The marquise cut solitaire rings by Flawless are cut with care to achieve a balanced and symmetrical shape. The marquise cut’s elongated appearance creates the illusion of a larger diamond. Expertly cut marquise diamond solitaire rings usually have 56 facets, a length-to-width ratio between 1.75 and 2.25, a table of 53–63%, and a depth of 58–62%. These proportions minimise the bow-tie effect and allow light to reflect evenly across the stone. Thus, it is a great option for someone who wants a large-looking diamond that also conveys a bold statement.
Frequently Asked Questions
What sets the marquise cut apart from the other diamond shapes?
What sets the marquise cut apart from the other diamond shapes?
A marquise diamond is an elongated oval shape, with pointed ends, and faceted like a brilliant. Its elongated shape draws the eye vertically and makes it one of the most unique and visually striking cuts available.
Why is cut quality so important with marquise diamonds?
Why is cut quality so important with marquise diamonds?
Fancy shapes like the marquise tend to show imperfections more than round brilliant cuts. As the cut gets poorer, light leakage, excessive bow-tie shadows, or uneven sparkle can make the diamond appear less appealing.
Do lab-grown marquise solitaire rings look any different from mined diamonds?
Do lab-grown marquise solitaire rings look any different from mined diamonds?
No, lab-grown marquise solitaire rings have the same facet structure, brilliance, and optical characteristics that mined one do. All size, ratio, and cut factors still apply.
Is a marquise solitaire ring durable enough for an everyday ring?
Is a marquise solitaire ring durable enough for an everyday ring?
