From Princess to Cushion Cut, the gemstone cut you love says a lot about your personality! Trendy or classic, bold or brilliant, what will you find out about yourself through your favorite gemstone cut?
Round
Personality & Stone Traits
Classic | Brilliant | Practical
The Round Cut was created in 1919 by a Belgian mathematician to calculate the perfect angles to catch the most light. A Round Cut Woman doesn’t sacrifice storage for style and would most likely be found wearing chic brands like Chanel and Burberry. This cut trends occasionally, but is always a top choice for engagement rings.
Princess
Personality & Stone Traits
Exciting | Romantic | Trendy
The Princess Cut was created by marrying a square cut stone with brilliant faceting. Made iconic in the 1980s, the Princess cut captures the brilliance of Round cut but with its own unique shape. A Princess Cut Woman could be found wearing Ellie Saab, Dior, and would most definitely have a Vera Wang Wedding dress for the perfect fairy tale wedding.
Pear
Personality & Stone Traits
Trailblazer | Independent | Unique
When the diamond-shaping wheel was invented, the Pear Cut was the first to be shaped on the Flemish Wheel. It takes a woman who knows who she is to choose this cut. She doesn’t care about trends, she cares about her own self and that’s it. She’ll be found in executive meetings wearing a mix of Louis Vuitton and Gucci, clashing patterns that make her stand out in all the right ways.
Marquise
Personality & Stone Traits
Sensual | Noble | Visionary
Created by King Louis XV of France, he wanted a cut of ring to match the shape of his mistresses’ lips. This shape comes in and out of style, but the woman who wears the Marquise Cut knows that it won’t be long before everyone is coveting her jewelry again. You can find her at a ritzy cocktail hour in a Christian Siriano, Pucci, or Prada dress.
Cushion
Personality & Stone Traits
Bold | Bright | Innovator
What was once referred to as “the Old Miner’s Cut'' was made infamous by Jennifer Lopez’ (first) engagement ring from Ben Affleck. A woman who wears the Cushion Cut knows how to get the most bang for her buck while drawing all the positive attention this cut can get. She’ll be found shopping on 5th Avenue or Rodeo Dr. wearing Balenciaga, Miu Miu, or making street wear look high-fashion.
Emerald
Personality & Stone Traits
Confidence | Clarity | Logic
While the Emerald cut was created in the 1500s, it didn’t gain popularity until the 1920s art deco era. The large, smooth facets make the flaws of the stone easier to see, but the woman who wears Emerald cut knows vulnerability is strength. She’s one to shop and wear vintage designers like Givenchy, Lanvin, and William Travilla. She’s looking for quality and elegance found in Emerald cuts.
