The emerald cut is an icon of the diamond world. These refined, elegant designs feature clean lines that play with the light. Unlike brilliant-cut diamonds that focus on producing maximum sparkle, emerald cut engagement rings reveal a more sophisticated beauty—one that emphasises depth, clarity, and an unmistakable sense of grace.
This type of cut was developed in the 15th century as a type of cut designed to protect the much more fragile structure of emerald gemstones. Jewellery lovers quickly saw the striking aesthetic of this cut, and the technique was soon adopted for diamonds. That’s why we still use the name emerald today.
Emerald cut engagement rings have step-cut facets. This is what creates the striking ‘hall of mirrors’ effect in the stone. The long flashes of light in these cuts mean that the clarity and colour of the diamond are more important than ever.
For a crisp, luminous appearance, look for diamonds in the VS2 clarity range or higher and opt for G-H coloured diamonds or better.
At Cushla Whiting, we honour this historic cut by selecting only the finest emerald cut diamonds—each chosen for its clarity, structure, and presence. Explore our collection to find a ring that speaks to you.
The cut of a diamond is crucial as it directly impacts the stone's brilliance, fire, and overall beauty. At Cushla Whiting, we understand that a well-cut diamond will display superior brightness, fire, and scintillation compared to one that is poorly cut. Our GIA Gemologist, Hamish Whiting, carefully selects diamonds using advanced techniques like ASET analysis to ensure optimal light performance. For emerald cut diamonds specifically, the precision of the step-cut facets is vital in creating the distinctive "hall of mirrors" effect that makes this shape so captivating.
An emerald cut engagement ring is an excellent choice for those seeking a sophisticated and timeless look. This elegant cut offers a unique blend of vintage appeal and modern geometry. At Cushla Whiting, we've seen a growing appreciation for emerald cut diamonds due to their sleek lines and ability to appear larger than other cuts of the same carat weight. They're particularly well-suited for those who prefer a more understated glamour over maximum sparkle. However, it's important to note that the open table of an emerald cut can make inclusions more visible, so selecting a high-quality stone is crucial.
An emerald cut engagement ring often symbolises elegance, sophistication, and confidence. The clean lines and step-cut facets of an emerald cut diamond reflect a sense of order and stability, making it a popular choice for those who appreciate structure and minimalism in design. Historically, the emerald cut has been associated with Art Deco style, symbolising modernity and forward-thinking. At Cushla Whiting, we find that many of our clients choose emerald cut rings as a representation of their refined taste and appreciation for architectural beauty.
