The History and Significance of

Marquise-Shaped Diamonds

The marquise cut diamond, with its distinctive elongated shape and pointed ends, has a rich history dating back several centuries. Here's an overview of its origins and evolution:

Origins: The marquise cut is believed to have been created in the 18th century during the reign of King Louis XV of France. Legend has it that the king commissioned a diamond to be cut in the shape of the lips of his mistress, the Marquise de Pompadour, hence the name "marquise." However, there is some debate about the accuracy of this story.
Early Development: The marquise cut was initially developed as a way to maximize the carat weight of rough diamonds, as the elongated shape allowed diamond cutters to preserve more of the stone's weight. Early marquise cuts often had fewer facets than modern versions and were primarily used for colored gemstones as well as diamonds.
Versatility: The marquise cut is versatile and can be set in a variety of engagement ring styles, from classic solitaires to intricate halo designs. It is also often used in combination with other diamond shapes, such as pear or round, to create stunning multi-stone rings.

The Unique Characteristics of Diamond Marquise Rings

The marquise cut gained popularity in the 20th century, particularly during the Art Deco period of the 1920s and 1930s. Its elegant and elongated shape complemented the geometric and symmetrical designs characteristic of Art Deco jewelry.

While the popularity of the marquise cut has waxed and waned over the years, it has remained a favorite choice for those seeking a unique and eye-catching diamond shape. It has been favored by celebrities and royalty, further contributing to its allure.

Modern marquise cut diamonds typically feature 58 facets, including a mix of kite-shaped and triangular facets. This faceting pattern maximizes the stone's brilliance and fire, enhancing its sparkle and beauty.

When it comes to pear-shaped diamond rings, there is no shortage of styles and settings to choose from. Whether you prefer a classic solitaire or a more intricate design, there is a style to suit every taste. Let's explore some of the popular styles and settings for pear-shaped diamond rings.

**Solitaire Marquise Rings**: The solitaire setting is a timeless and elegant choice for marquise-cut diamond rings. It showcases the beauty of the pear diamond, allowing it to take center stage. The simplicity of the solitaire setting enhances the diamond's brilliance and sparkle, creating a stunning and sophisticated look.
**Halo Marquise Rings**: The halo setting is a popular choice for marquise-cut diamond rings as it adds extra sparkle and visual impact. The center marquise-cut diamond is surrounded by a halo of smaller diamonds, creating a dazzling and glamorous effect. The halo setting not only enhances the brilliance of the marquise-cut diamond but also gives the illusion of a larger center stone.

3. **Pavé Marquise Rings**: The pavé setting is perfect for those who love a touch of sparkle. In a pavé setting, small diamonds are set closely together, creating a band of shimmering brilliance. When combined with a marquise-cut diamond, the pavé setting adds a luxurious and glamorous touch to the ring.

4. **Three-Stone Marquise Rings**: The three-stone setting is a symbolic choice for marquise-cut diamond rings. The three stones represent the past, present, and future of a relationship, making it a popular choice for engagement rings. The marquise-cut diamond is often placed in the center, flanked by two smaller stones, creating a stunning and meaningful design.

These are just a few examples of the popular styles and settings for marquise-cut diamond rings. The choice ultimately depends on personal preference and style, ensuring that each diamond marquise-cut ring is a unique reflection of its wearer.
