About Marquise Cut Ratio

The length-to-width ratio of marquise diamonds determines their appearance and proportions. A ratio of 1.75 offers a shorter and wider look, while a ratio of 1.95 creates a more balanced length-to-width feel, and a ratio of 2.15 presents a more elongated and elegant shape. Unlike traditional diamond cuts, marquise diamonds do not have an official cut grade standard. Therefore, when choosing, you should consider personal preferences and overall aesthetics. Below is a reference chart for the cut grades of marquise diamonds to help you select the most suitable diamond for your needs.

Marquise Cut Diamond Colour

The colour grading of diamonds ranges from D (completely colourless, the highest grade) to Z (light yellow). Diamonds graded D to F are considered colourless, while those graded G to J are nearly colourless, with the colour becoming increasingly noticeable as you move down the scale. Generally, the closer a diamond is to being colourless, the more valuable it is, though certain colour grades, like light yellow, can have their own unique appeal.

Marquise Cut Diamond Clarity

Clarity refers to a diamond's degree of internal and surface imperfections (known as inclusions and blemishes). Clarity grades range from Flawless (FL/IF) to Included (I1-I3). Diamonds with higher clarity grades have fewer imperfections, making them rarer and more expensive, while diamonds with lower clarity grades have more noticeable flaws, but can still display beautiful brilliance in certain cases.

FAQ

About Marquise Cut Natural Diamonds

Marquise-cut diamonds, with their unique elegance and elongated shape, are suitable for various ring designs, particularly vintage, modern, and luxurious styles. They appear distinguished and unique in solitaire designs and add a touch of glamour in three-stone or side-stone settings. Additionally, marquise diamonds are well-suited for rings with intricate details, such as diamond-studded frames, which can further highlight their shape and reduce the visibility of the bow-tie effect, caused by uneven cutting. Choosing the right design can maximise the unique charm and brilliance of marquise-cut diamonds, making them a stunning choice for any ring style.

What Ring Designs Are Suitable for Marquise-Cut Diamonds?

To judge the cut quality of a marquise diamond, you should first focus on its symmetry and proportions. A well-cut marquise diamond should exhibit a uniform length-to-width ratio, making the diamond's ends pointed and its center wider, forming a unique boat-shaped appearance. Additionally, assessing the diamond's brightness and fire is crucial; high-quality cuts maximise light capture, enhancing the diamond's brilliance and sparkle. Pay attention to the bow-tie effect, a dark area in the center caused by improper cutting that resembles a black bow-tie. Excellent cutting minimises the bow-tie effect, ensuring the diamond's brightness and sparkle. Finally, ensure the diamond's polish is flawless, as this directly affects its overall beauty and reflective quality. By examining these details, you can effectively evaluate the cut quality of a marquise diamond.

How to Judge the Cut Quality of a Marquise Diamond?

Focus on Cut Quality

 

When budget is a concern, prioritise the cut quality of the diamond. The cut significantly affects the diamond's brilliance and sparkle. A well-cut diamond will appear more luminous even if the other Cs (Colour, Clarity, Carat) are slightly lower.

 

Choose SI Clarity

 

Opt for diamonds in the SI (Slightly Included) clarity range. These diamonds often have inclusions that are not visible to the naked eye but come at a more attractive price point compared to higher clarity grades.

 

Consider Near-Colourless Grades

 

For colour, select diamonds in the G to J range. These grades are near-colourless and appear white to the untrained eye in normal viewing conditions, offering excellent value without compromising on visual appeal.

 

Opt for Lower Carat Weight

 

Consider choosing slightly lower carat weights. Diamonds just below popular weights (like 0.90 carat instead of 1.00 carat) can be significantly cheaper while still looking substantial.

 

Consider Lab-Grown Diamonds

Another smart choice for budget-conscious buyers is lab-grown diamonds. These diamonds have the same chemical and physical properties as natural diamonds but are typically more affordable due to the controlled manufacturing process. This allows you to get a higher quality diamond (better cut, colour, and clarity) for the same budget, providing a luxurious feel without the high cost associated with natural diamonds.

How to Choose High-Quality Diamonds on a Budget?

Natural diamond clarity grades are classified based on the size, nature, position, and visibility of inclusions and surface characteristics. The grading scale ranges from FL (Flawless) to I3 (Included). When choosing a clarity grade, consider personal budget and aesthetic preferences. VS (Very Slightly Included) or SI (Slightly Included) grades often provide the best value, as the inclusions are not visible to the naked eye and the prices are more affordable. If your budget allows, VVS (Very Very Slightly Included) grades offer a nearly flawless appearance but come at a higher cost.

How are natural diamond clarity grades classified, and which clarity should I choose?

The colour grade of a diamond is crucial when purchasing a natural loose diamond, as it directly impacts the diamond's appearance and value. Colour grades range from completely colourless (grade D) to light yellow or brown (grade Z). Colourless diamonds, particularly those graded D to F, are highly prized for their purity and typically command higher prices. When choosing a colour grade, consider personal preference and budget, and observe the diamond's actual colour performance under natural light. For many buyers, diamonds graded G to J offer excellent value, as the colour differences are often imperceptible to the naked eye compared to higher-grade diamonds.

How important is the colour grade of a diamond when purchasing a natural loose diamond?

The 4Cs of natural diamonds stand for Cut, Clarity, Colour, and Carat Weight, which are the international standards for evaluating diamond quality. The cut determines the optical beauty of the diamond, with a better cut enhancing its brightness. Clarity assesses the number of inclusions, with higher clarity meaning a clearer diamond. The closer the colour grade is to colourless, the rarer the diamond. Carat weight indicates the size of the diamond. These factors collectively influence the diamond's value, with higher quality usually leading to higher prices. Understanding the 4Cs helps consumers make informed purchasing decisions.

What does 4C mean for natural diamonds, and how do they affect a diamond's value?

Diamond Certificate

Certified by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), the world's most respected diamond grading authority and a promoter of diamond certification.

Laser Inscription

Each loose diamond features a unique laser inscription on the girdle, matching the certification number, ensuring the authenticity and uniqueness of every diamond.
