The Marquise Cut Diamond

The Marquise Cut Diamond

The marquise cut is believed to date back to the 18th century when King Louis XV of France asked a jeweller to design a diamond in the shape of the lips of Jean Antoinette Poisson, his mistress. This style of cut has 58 facets, like the round brilliant, pear and oval shaped diamonds. This means that the brilliance and fire of a marquise diamond is one of the best as each of the facets captures and reflects light beautifully. The elongated shape of the diamond is very flattering, making the fingers appear longer. Marquise diamonds are a more unique choice of engagement ring gemstone looking beautiful within both vintage designs or sleek modern pieces.
