Why Choose a Marquise Diamond as a Center Stone?
A Marquise diamond is a fabulous choice for a center stone in a diamond engagement ring for several compelling reasons:
- Unique Shape: The elongated shape of a Marquise diamond gives it a distinctive appearance that stands out. Its silhouette is akin to a pair of lips or an eye, making it a beautiful representation of love and fidelity.
- Face-Up Size: Compare length, width, and the actual face-up appearance. Carat measures weight, so equal-weight diamonds may look different in size.
- Brilliant Faceting: Compare individual stones in normal lighting and at normal viewing distance. A marquise can show a dark bow-tie pattern across its center; judge how it looks as the stone moves.
- Versatile Setting Options: Marquise diamonds pair well with various ring settings, from classic solitaire styles to more ornate halo designs. This versatility allows for endless customization to suit personal tastes.
- Tip Protection: Discuss a setting that protects both pointed ends, such as appropriately placed V-shaped prongs. Ask us to inspect the tips and explain care for the finished ring.
- Flattering to Fingers: The elongated shape can create an illusion of longer fingers, adding grace and elegance to the overall appearance when worn.
- Customization Potential: At N.J. Diamonds, we offer the opportunity to customize your Marquise diamond engagement ring, allowing you to choose between lab-grown or natural stones, making it a personal and meaningful piece.
Choosing a Marquise diamond for your engagement ring is a statement of elegance and individuality, perfect for those seeking something distinctive and beautiful.
