Perfect for diamonds with a high clarity, the emerald cut gives the diamond a large table on top which lets you see deep into the stone. Emerald-shaped diamonds are best when they are very rectangular, as a square emerald style is technically called an asscher style.
Pear is the perfect diamond style for pendants, but it can look good in rings as well. The pear is a brilliant-cut diamond, with 58 facets that are designed to make the stone sparkle.
A princess-style diamond is square in shape, with a large table and pointed corners. The princess has all the sparkle of a traditional round cut, but in a stylish square shape.
A radiant-cut diamond is much like an emerald-cut, but since it has 70 facets, you will get a brilliance similar to a round-cut diamond. Radiants look best when they are paired with other smaller stones around them.
The shape is the biggest draw to this style of diamond, but the stone doesn't lack in brilliance. The stone is cut much like a pear-cut diamond, except a cleft in the top of the rock makes it look like a heart.
I like the Aschur cut. Great list. h5
