Engagement Rings with the Classic Round Brilliant Cut
Let’s start with the timeless classic – the round brilliant diamond. Its symmetrical shape and brilliant facets make it sparkle from every angle.
This versatile shape is perfect for all finger types, but it’s particularly flattering for slender to average fingers, because it’s of it’s exact symmetry.
Plus, its classic appeal ensures that it will never go out of style!
So if you are an active woman and love things that never go out of style, then the round brilliant cut is perfect for you!
Engagement Rings with Oval and Radiant Brilliant Cuts
The oval and radiant cuts have been widely popular and the go-to choice for most brides.
The Oval which is round’s biggest rival gives a large look and is great for active types as well as those with shorter or wider fingers.
The Radiant cut can be square or rectangular and has plenty of sparkle from its “crushed ice” appearance. The rectangular version adds length to shorter finders and the square version is great for wider or slender fingers.
Engagement Rings with Princess and Cushion Brilliant Cuts
If you have slender fingers, you are in luck – there are plenty of diamond shapes that will flatter your hand. Look for symmetrical shapes like the sparkling square shapes of the princess and cushion brilliant cuts.
The princess-cut diamond, with its square shape and sharp corners, adds a modern touch and creates the illusion of lengthening the fingers.
Another great option is the square cushion-cut diamond, known for its romantic and vintage charm. Its slightly rounded corners and pillow-like appearance make it an ideal choice for those who are active, but also want a soft and romantic look.
Engagement Rings with Marquise and Pear Brilliant Cuts
For those with short or wider fingers, don’t worry- there are beautiful options for you too!
If you like to be more unique, then the marquise and pear-shaped diamonds are a match made in heaven.
Both these shapes have elongated silhouettes that beautifully accentuate the shorter or wider fingers, creating a graceful and elegant look.
The marquise is known for its eye-catching sparkle, while the tear-drop inspired pear shape combines the brilliance of a round diamond with a unique tapered point.
Engagement Rings with Emerald and Asscher Step Cuts
Now, let’s talk about those who want something truly unique!
If you have a bold and adventurous style, consider fancy-shaped diamonds like the emerald or asscher step cut.
The rectangular emerald cut features long, clean lines that create a sleek and sophisticated look, perfect for those with short or wider fingers.
On the other hand, the square asscher cut has a step-cut facet pattern and a distinctive art deco vibe that exudes elegance and individuality. This elegant square cut is perfect for those with long, thin fingers.
