Emerald Cut Engagement Rings vs Other Diamond Shapes
Emerald-cut diamonds have a distinctive step-cut appearance that sets them apart from many brilliant-cut shapes.
Compared with a round diamond, an emerald cut offers a more geometric and understated appearance. Compared with a cushion cut, it has sharper lines and step-cut facets rather than softly rounded corners with brilliant-style faceting.
