Each cut has its own different qualities. This article will give you a short rundown on the properties of each of these ten most common diamond shapes.<\/p>\n<p>The most popular cut by far is the round cut. If you are stumped and looking to make a quick decision, the round cut may be just the thing for you. When thinking of diamonds, the round cut is the shape which first comes to mind.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for something different, the princess cut is the second most popular diamond shape. Properly cut, a princess cut diamond can be beautiful. However, sometimes they don&#8217;t quite come out as brilliant as you may expect. If you want one, get one from a well-established jeweler.<\/p>\n<p>The oval cut is another very popular cut, especially for engagement rings. This is a classic style, almost as common as is the round cut. This cut is beautiful and stylish as well as versatile &#8211; this diamond shape can work in rings of almost any style.<\/p>\n<p>One of the very most elegant cuts is the marquise cut. This is an elongated shaped cut which makes the diamond appear larger than its actual size and as such is typically used on smaller diamonds. The name of this cut comes from the fact that they were and still are popular with royalty.<\/p>\n<p>The pear shaped cut is similar to both the oval and the marquise cuts, featuring the best that each of these cuts have to offer &#8211; truly a winning combination.<\/p>\n<p>The step, or emerald cut is a common choice for a starter diamond. They are beautiful but have fewer facets than many other cuts, making any imperfections in the diamond more apparent.<\/p>\n<p>The asscher cut is more of an art deco style. It&#8217;s usually used for other gems. Although it is a less common cut for diamonds, it is slowly becoming more popular. If you&#8217;re looking for a fairly unique diamond cut, it may be right for you.<\/p>\n<p>For beauty and a truly rare cut of diamond, there&#8217;s nothing quite like a perfectly cut, flawless heart shaped diamond. Since this is a very difficult cut to do well, these can be very expensive and hard to find. However, once you finally get your hands on one &#8211; or one on your hand, you will feel that the gem was well worth the time and expense.<\/p>\n<p>A traditional cut which has fallen out of favor somewhat in recent times is the radiant cut. This is similar to an emerald cut, but with more facets for added luster.<\/p>\n<p>Last is the cushion cut. Much like the marquise cut, these cuts make a small diamond appear larger and show off the gem to best advantage. Even a smaller diamond comes off looking magnificent with a cushion cut.<\/p>\n<div class='uawresource'>\n<div style='italic;' class='uawabout'>About the Author:<\/div>\n<div class='uawlinks'>You&#8217;ll find diamonds in every shape imaginable at MyDiamondSpree.com &#8211; shop for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mydiamondspree.com\/Store\/diamond-jewelry-sets\">diamond jewelry sets<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mydiamondspree.com\/Store\/diamond-necklaces\">diamond necklaces<\/a> and save a bundle off jewelry store prices.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are ten different diamond shapes which are common.
