Marquise Engagement Ring

Marquise Engagement Rings – Distinctive Elongated Diamond Style

A marquise engagement ring features a marquise-shaped diamond with two pointed ends and curved sides, creating its characteristic elongated silhouette.

The marquise cut is a brilliant-style diamond shape, with facets designed to reflect light and create brilliance. Its length-to-width proportions can give the centre stone a graceful presence across the finger.

Marquise diamonds can be used across a variety of engagement ring designs, from simple solitaire settings to more detailed diamond-accented styles.

Why Choose a Marquise Cut Engagement Ring?

A marquise cut engagement ring may appeal if you are looking for:

• An elongated diamond silhouette
• Distinctive pointed ends
• Curved diamond edges
• Brilliant diamond sparkle
• A distinctive alternative to traditional round diamonds
• An elegant centre stone with strong visual presence

The marquise shape works particularly well across both classic and contemporary engagement ring settings.

Marquise Solitaire Engagement Rings

A marquise solitaire engagement ring places a single marquise-cut diamond at the centre of the design.

The simple setting allows the elongated shape and pointed ends of the diamond to remain the main focus.
