Princess — this is a square diamond that looks bigger than differently shaped diamonds of the same weight.
Emerald Cut — this is a rectangular cut diamond that is considered as the most sophisticated of all the shapes.
Marquis — This are also round but it looks longer than a round or oval cut diamond because the two ends are pointed.
Pear — this kind of shape is almost rounded at the top but the bottom is pointed. This type of cut doesn’t look very good in a single stone set into a ring. This kind of shape is recommended for other types of jewelry, such as necklaces or earrings.
Oval — this kind of cut is also a similar one to the round cut, but it looks bigger because of its shape. This shape works best with larger stones
