A lab-grown diamond is the purer, cleaner, and more considered choice. Chemically, physically, and optically identical to a mined diamond, it delivers exceptional brilliance and the uncompromising quality expected of the world's finest jewellery. Marquise diamonds are variations of the round brilliant cut and have 58 total facets to maximise sparkle. Because of the longer shape of this diamond, the marquise crown is typically larger than expected and the size of the stone is emphasised, making it appear larger than its carat weight. The marquise diamond is often called the "romantic" diamond shape because of its unique curves. The meaning behind a marquise diamond shape is love, joy, and celebration. Our Marquise Cut Lab-Diamond looks lovely in intricate vintage styles and halo settings but also works beautifully as an eye-catching simple solitaire. Smaller carat marquise-shaped diamonds are also great for east-west settings. A note from Bec: A little goes a long way with the a marquise diamond. Due to their elongated, boat-shaped design and shallow depth, the marquise cut offers the wearer a lot more 'bang for your buck' in terms of finger coverage! The marquise' unique shape distributes more of the diamond's weight into length rather than depth, resulting in a diamond with a greater 'face up' display of any other stone! This means, carat for carat - the marquise will always appear larger than any other shape. In addition to this, the marquise is an elongated stone, which will (like the oval) flatter almost any hand or finger! Nothing compares to a clean and well set marquise!
