Brought to you by original princess cut engagement rings.

Thousands of designs are possible for engagement rings, but only a few cuts are used frequently.

An engagement ring is often a simple stone or trio of stones, as it must be safely set, stable when under working conditions, and appropriate looking under many circumstances. The limitations of one stone in a secure setting- or a trio of stones mounted in the same way- and designed to be worn for any occasion, show that final selections most often favor clean, timeless cuts that can be safely mounted and give intense visual impact regardless of a modest setting.

The round cut stone is the most common. Many jewelers say that round cut is the best with very best fire and all facets of the stone are taken care of. An engagement ring, in the classic idea, is a single round stone in a “Tiffany setting”.  “Tiffany settings” consist of raised prongs that are set a bit higher than the ring band.  This floating stone allows the stone to receive the maximum amount of light. A Tiffany setting is at its best when set with a brilliant round cut diamond. However, there is no place to hide for a small, muddy stone.

Beautiful green emeralds really shine when cut into long rectangles. An emerald cut gives unusual and exceptionally stately option,this less flashy than the round cut and has an awesome dignity and a lot of room to show off a large stone. A Princess cut stone, with its four-square look, reminds us of stability and security. Linear cuts aren’t dangerous as long as they’re mounted correctly with the corners guarded by and the sides secured by prongs.

From a design perspective the cushion cut diamond is extremely flexible, merging well with other stones and balancing the shine and glitter of its round cut with the same dignity and grace of the linear cuts. Stones that are said to be cushion cut are stones with a rounded edge and are square or a rectangle with curved sides and the corners also rounded off.

The uneven balance of the form is difficult to use in a stable and simple setting,but a pear cut, or tear drop diamonds are much beautiful. It is difficult to set a solitaire diamond, especially a pear cut stone, setting it wrong can make it look lopsided or off kilter, and the stone can, not match the final wedding ring design. Necklaces, earrings, or rings that function on their own may be a better fit for these lovely stones than a wedding band. 

The Marquise, an elongated eye-shaped cut roughly oval but sharply pointed at all ends, is utilized on many occasions  in multi-stone rings.
