Marquise Cut Diamonds

Marquise cut diamonds are diamonds which have a fancy shape and radiate brilliantly if properly cut. Marquise cut diamonds lack in popularity when compared to the princess cut diamonds or the round cut diamonds but are still uniquely elegant and sophisticated. A major benefit of the marquise cut diamonds is that their shape makes them appear larger than they actually are. A smaller size can thus be purchased.
A large volume of people prefer the marquise cut diamonds owing to the fact that these diamonds make the fingers of the individual appear slender and long. For people with short and stout fingers, a marquise cut diamond is the ideal choice. A major factor which must be considered when buying marquise cut diamonds is the length-to-width ratio as the over all looks of the diamond and its refractive capacity. The best length-to-width ratio is considered to be 1.75-2.25.

Fancy Cuts – Marquise Diamonds

A diamond is identified in terms of quality by its 4C’s which are color, cut, clarity, and carat weight. People often ten to believe that bigger marquise cut diamonds are higher in value as compared to the smaller marquise cut diamonds which is a totally wrong assumption.
A large diamond with a fair grading in terms of color and clarity will not sparkle as compared to a smaller diamond with a good or ideal grade in terms of color and clarity. Each and every diamond purchased through OnDiamonds.com comes with certificates of quality from any of the three testing labs (GIA, AGS, or EGL). A customer can thus be satisfied with his purchase.
