We have all heard of Emerald City and know very well that an emerald is green just like this picture, but how does that convert into a cut or style for a diamond? An emerald cut is distinguished by its rectangular shape and steeped faucets, meaning the edges of the emerald cut look like stairs. This cut was originally deigned for colored stones only, however, its sophisticated look quickly became popular and was brought into the diamond realm. This cut begs for a clear cut diamond, for it doesn’t reflect light in the best way, due to its limited faucets, but it still shines with a quiet elegance. The emerald cut is also called “the table cut” or “Step cut” due to its unique faucets. This cut is normally sided with other stones to balance out its elongated shape. However, it is quite a beautiful statement as a solitaire.
So what personality would best go with an emerald cut engagement ring? A sophisticated girl would love this cut in her engagement ring. It is guaranteed to be classy and lovely despite the setting; the setting can only enhance its beauty. An Emerald cut is the most economical cut to get your girl. It’s not as modern as the princess, nor is it as traditional as the round; the emerald is timeless and beautiful and is easy on the wallet.
If your girl has long slender fingers this cut will enhance the long-ness of her fingers, but if her fingers are shorter then this cut may seem a little disproportionate to her fingers.
