Which Engagement Ring Cut is the Most Expensive?

Choosing the right engagement ring goes beyond looks. Knowing how the diamond cut affects the ring's appearance and value is important. In this blog, we help you  choose the right diamond by comparing prices based on different cuts. To choose wisely, consider the qualities and prices of various cuts that match your preferences and budget.

Round Cut Diamonds

Round-cut diamonds are the most popular choice for engagement rings. Their timeless shape and sparkling brilliance make them a perfect symbol of love and commitment.

However, they are also the most expensive type of diamond-cut ring. The prices for round-cut diamonds range from several thousand to several hundred thousand dollars. The high cost is because of their popularity and the need to cut a lot of material from the rough diamond. This renders them the most profligate diamond shapes.

Emerald Cut Diamonds

For those seeking a more elegant and sophisticated look,  emerald rings are a popular choice. This cut features long, rectangular lines with step-cut facets, creating a unique and sparkling effect. Emerald-cut diamonds cost less than round-cut diamonds but are still pricey, often costing thousands of dollars.

Princess Cut Diamonds

Princess cut diamonds offer a similar level of brilliance to round cut diamonds but with a more modern and stylish look. This cut features a square or rectangular shape with sharp, angular facets, giving it a unique and sparkling appearance. These types of cuts cost less than round-cut diamonds but are still pricey, often costing thousands of dollars.

Asscher Cut Diamonds

For a unique and elegant alternative to the more popular round and princess-cut diamonds, consider Asscher-cut diamonds. This cut features a square shape with step-cut facets, creating a distinctive and sparkling appearance. Asscher-cut diamond rings are often less expensive than round-cut diamonds but still come with a high price, often costing several thousand dollars.

Radiant Cut Diamonds

If you prefer a modern and stylish alternative,  radiant-cut diamonds are worth considering. This cut has a square or rectangular shape with both brilliant and step-cut facets, creating a special and sparkling look. Radiant-cut diamonds are cheaper than round-cut diamonds but still expensive, costing thousands of dollars.

Oval Engagement Rings

Oval cut diamonds, known for their unique and classy appearance, vary in pricing compared to other diamond shapes. Diamonds with a round shape might be less expensive than those with fancy shapes because of their distinct sparkle. However, they still offer a more affordable option compared to round diamonds.

The pricing of diamonds involves factors like  carat weight, cut, color, clarity, shape, and origin. Oval-cut diamonds are 28% cheaper per carat than round-cut diamonds. They cut them in a way that reduces waste from the original stone. Oval engagement rings are elegant and affordable, great for those who want value and style in their diamond choice.
