Marquise Cut Engagement Rings
Why Marquise Cut?
The marquise cut is the ultimate choice for brides seeking dramatic elegance and maximum visual impact. With its elongated boat shape and pointed ends, the marquise creates an incredibly flattering effect on the hand, making fingers appear longer and more slender while delivering one of the largest face-up appearances of any diamond shape meaning you get more sparkle per carat.
Originally commissioned by King Louis XV to resemble the smile of his mistress, the Marquise de Pompadour, this regal cut carries a romantic history that adds depth to its beauty. The marquise's distinctive silhouette stands out in any setting, from vintage-inspired designs with ornate details to sleek modern solitaires, making it perfect for the bride who wants a truly unique ring that commands attention. While less common than round or oval cuts, the marquise offers timeless sophistication with an unmistakable boldness, ideal for those who embrace individuality and aren't afraid to make a statement.
