Our expertise in custom jewelry design ensures that every ring we create is a masterpiece, designed to reflect individuality and timeless elegance.
A Royal Origin: The History of the Marquise Diamond
The marquise diamond ring has a fascinating history that dates back to 18th-century France. Legend has it that King Louis XV of France commissioned a jeweler to create a diamond cut that resembled the smile of his mistress, the Marquise de Pompadour. The result was the marquise cut—an elongated diamond with pointed ends and stunning brilliance.
This noble origin has solidified the marquise cut as a symbol of elegance, prestige, and luxury. Over the centuries, this distinctive shape has remained a popular choice among royalty, celebrities, and jewelry enthusiasts alike.
What Makes a Marquise Diamond Ring Special?
A marquise diamond ring stands out due to its unique characteristics:
✔️ Elongated Shape: The marquise cut creates an illusion of a larger diamond while elongating the fingers for a graceful, slender look.
✔️ Brilliant Faceting: The faceting pattern of a marquise diamond enhances its brilliance, allowing it to reflect light beautifully from every angle.
✔️ Versatile Design: Whether set in a solitaire, halo, or vintage-inspired setting, a marquise diamond ring can be designed to match any personal style.
✔️ Maximized Carat Weight: Because of its elongated shape, a marquise diamond appears larger than other diamond cuts of the same carat weight.
✔️ Timeless Appeal: From vintage to modern designs, a marquise diamond ring maintains its charm across generations, making it an heirloom-worthy piece.
At Vermont Gem Lab, we offer custom marquise diamond ring designs that bring out the brilliance of this unique cut while ensuring an exquisite and personalized finish.
Choosing the Perfect Marquise Diamond Ring
When selecting a marquise diamond ring, there are a few key factors to consider:
1. Proportions Matter
A well-cut marquise diamond typically has a length-to-width ratio of 1.75 to 2.25. This balance ensures an elegant, elongated look without appearing too narrow or too wide.
2. Avoid the Bowtie Effect
Marquise diamonds can sometimes exhibit a "bowtie" effect—a dark shadow in the center of the stone. Choosing a well-cut diamond with excellent faceting will minimize this effect.
3. Setting Styles
- Solitaire: A classic and elegant choice that highlights the beauty of the marquise diamond.
- Halo: Surrounding the marquise diamond with smaller diamonds enhances its sparkle and makes the center stone appear even larger.
- Vintage-Inspired: Ornate settings with intricate details bring out the romantic and timeless nature of the marquise cut.
