Emerald cut diamond ring

Emerald cut engagement rings are perfect for the bride-to-be who wants
something a little out of the ordinary…something that causes that sought-after
‘gasp’ when she shows it off. This is an elegant style of diamond that gets a
great reaction, but without taking a huge bite out of your budget. An emerald
cut diamond, as the name suggests, is cut in the style that was originally used
only for emeralds. Emeralds are a fairly hard stone, but are known for having a
large number of naturally occurring internal flaws. These flaws cause emeralds
to be extremely easy to break…which in turn makes cutting them a challenge.
The solution was to use a stepped, rectangular cut with cropped corners. It
wasn’t long though until this cut was being used for other stones, including
diamonds.emerald cut diamond ring
