Marquise Diamonds for Pure Elegance

When you slip a marquise-cut diamond engagement ring onto the finger of the love of your life, this unique cut diamond creates an optical illusion that can make it seem larger than it actually is. This is because it is shaped in a form similar to that of a little boat, sometimes referred to as ‘navette’, a French term with this meaning.

History suggests that marquise-cut diamonds may have been named in honour of a mistress of King Louis XV, as the shape seemed to mirror her smile. Our team of superb handcrafting specialists will always pay great attention to the symmetry of this cut. The slightest flaws can leave an uneven and unbalanced appearance, which is unacceptable to our Kush Diamonds team. You can expect quality whenever you make the unique choice of a bespoke marquise diamond engagement ring at our warehouse prices.

Marquise Diamond Rings and a matching personality.

A marquise diamond ring is always popular amongst individuals with a modern outlook on life. Whether you’re making a choice for your bride-to-be or creating a dream ring together, she likely is a creative, different, and even edgy woman. As you would agree, she is in a class of her own, willing to reset the rules and is daring enough to set her own standards in a unique life. The marquise cut diamond was first created for the sensational Marquise de Pompadour, both highly educated and intellectual in outlook, perhaps confirming these earlier thoughts.

Styling Marquise Cut Engagement Rings: Versatile Elegance

Marquise diamonds, with their elongated shape and pointed ends, boast a unique elegance that is both classic and contemporary. This distinct cut can be styled to suit every individual’s taste, whether you choose rose gold, yellow gold or prefer jewellery in white gold.

  • Solitaire Setting: To showcase the marquise cut in all its glory, opt for a simple solitaire setting, which allows the diamond to be the main attraction.
  • Halo Design: Surround the marquise diamond with a halo of several diamond shapes or gemstones. This not only accentuates the centre stone but also gives it a more substantial appearance.
  • East-West Setting: Instead of the traditional north-south orientation, place the marquise diamond horizontally for a modern twist.
  • Pave Band: For extra sparkle, choose a band encrusted with tiny diamonds. This complements the elongated shape of the marquise cut and enhances its brilliance.
  • Vintage Inspired: Incorporate intricate metalwork, milgrain details, or filigree designs for marquise engagement rings that exude old-world charm.
  • Three-Stone Setting: Flank the marquise diamond with two smaller diamonds or gemstones on either side. This creates a balanced and harmonious look.
  • Stackable Bands: For those who love to mix and match, consider pairing marquise diamond engagement rings with stackable bands of different designs and metals.

Incorporating these designs allows wearers to express their individuality while celebrating the beauty and uniqueness of the marquise diamond. Whatever the choice, a marquise diamond engagement ring is bound to leave a lasting impression.
