Oval-shaped diamonds are beloved for their timeless beauty and graceful proportions. With their elongated silhouette and softly rounded edges, they offer a romantic twist on the classic round brilliant — combining brilliance with elegance in every glance.
Solitare
A solitaire lets the diamond do the talking as we say in the shop, a simple but beautiful setting lets the beauty of the stone come through with no distractions.
Solitaire with side diamonds
Whether it’s a diamond set band, pear shape accent stones or the rare and fascinating trapeze cut, a solitaire with sides can add an extra dimension if a solitaire is too simple for you.
Oval Three Stone
An oval three stone is difficult to make as sourcing three stones that will work harmoniously together takes expertise, a keen eye and patience, but the end result is always worth it.
Halo
When you absolutely, positively must have as much sparkle as possible, accept no substitutes!
With its elongated silhouette and soft curves, the oval brings together the brilliance of a round cut with a more distinctive, graceful shape — offering timeless beauty with a modern edge. The oval cut diamond can appear larger than the round brilliant cut for the same carat weight and is very fashionable for brides as it is classic and timeless.
If you're drawn to elegance with character, an oval-cut diamond may be exactly what you're looking for.
