Princess Engagement Rings
- The Princess shape is the most popular of all fancy shapes for Engagement Rings, this diamond has a square shape when looked at from above. The Princess Cut has a beautiful and intense sparkle.

Asscher Engagement Rings
- The Asscher is similar to the emerald diamond shape, however the asscher shape is square when looked at from above, we recommend a clarity grade of VS2 or better for asscher diamonds, this is due to the large top face.

Emerald Engagement Rings
- The top face of the Emerald shape is fairly wide, a traditional diamond shape which requires a diamond clarity grade of VS2 or better.

Marquise Engagement Rings
- The Marquise shape is unique as it often appears a larger carat weight than it is due to the pointed edges at each end of the diamond. A perfect diamond shape for someone with slender fingers.

Radiant Engagement Rings
- Square radiant diamonds have a similar sparkle to round brilliant diamonds, they are similar in appearance to asscher and emerald diamond shapes.

Round Brilliant Engagement Rings
- The Round Brilliant is the most popular type of engagement ring. The shape was calculated by a mathematician to optimise the amount of light reflected back through its top table face and hence why it sparkles so well.
