Start with the shape that just does it for you.
Before carat or clarity, most people have a shape they're drawn to. Here's a quick tour of the classics — and how each one feels on the hand.
Round
The classic — max sparkle, timeless, the most popular choice.
Princess
A sharp, modern square cut with strong brilliance.
Cushion
And softer 'pillow' corners, vintage charm and fire.
Oval
Elongated and elegant, often makes fingers look longer.
Emerald
A clean, open step-cut with a Hall-of-mirrors effect.
Pear
A teardrop combining round and marquise — graceful and unique.
Marquise
Elongated and pointed, a dramatic, large-looking silhouette.
Radiant
Rectangular with brilliant facets — bold, modern fire.
The best shape is the one you love.
There's no 'best' diamond shape — only the one that feels right on the person wearing it. Bring your favorites (or no idea at all) and we'll show you how each looks in the metal on a hand.
