An emerald cut diamond is generally cut to form a rectangular or even square shape that also includes corners that are diagonally cut. Most such diamonds have between two and four rows that consist of facets (parallel) that veer toward the stone’s center point. This kind of cut was mostly used for emeralds and that is how the term emerald cut was coined. Another unique aspect of the emerald cut diamond is that the table of the diamond is flat which a factor is that helps in highlighting the diamond’s clarity.

More Expensive

An emerald cut diamond is also usually more costly as compared with other diamond cuts and the reason is that such diamonds have fewer impurities as well as inclusions thereby adding to their value. Typically, this kind of cut should require the length to width ratio to fall between 1.30 and 1.40. An interesting feature related to the emerald cut is that during the seventies many successful businesses used this particular diamond cut in their company logos.

As with the other diamond cuts, before buying an emerald cut diamond it is recommended that you review its clarity which should not be less than SI1. Among the most famous of all the emerald cut diamonds, the Darya-I-Nur was renowned throughout the world as it was also believed to be the world’s largest pink colored diamond. It had an estimated weight of between one hundred and seventy-five to one hundred and ninety-five carats and of course its color was pink.

The popularity of the emerald cut diamond can be attributed to the beauty of this cut as well as to its high value because these diamonds are quite rare and not so readily found which is why owning such a diamond has an added appeal.
