Emerald cut engagement rings are a classic, eye-catching choice with a wedding band or without. This diamond cut is having a resurgence in popularity due to its vintage-inspired look. The emerald cut is a rectangular shape with stepped facets, which gives it a regal appearance, and highlights the clarity of the stone. It also adds to a unique sparkle! For anyone who may be looking for an alternative to a solitaire or princess-cut diamond, emerald cut engagement rings are a highly recommended choice.
The Appeal of the Emerald Cut
There are three main reasons why an emerald cut is wildly popular.
Clarity
The cut has large open facets which accentuate the clarity of the center stone. For this reason, brides love the way it shines with a little extra oomph. :)
Art Deco Style
Vintage style jewelry is having a moment and Art Deco is one of the most sought-after styles. The geometric stones look reminiscent of the Art Deco time period and pair well with delicate bands.
More Sparkle
It sparkles less than a brilliant cut ring, but many brides love that understated glamour. There’s a dazzling look, without the overpowering sparkle.

Is An Emerald Cut Diamond More Expensive?
Are emerald cuts more expensive? No, not necessarily. It all comes down to the clarity and carats — the size of the diamond — when cost is concerned.
Is Emerald Cut the Best?
I certainly think so! :) However, emerald cut is just one of many fantastic cuts of diamond rings and the choice depends on its wearer.
