The Top 3 Diamond Shapes at the Lowest Cost

Let's examine the top 3 most economical diamond shapes in more detail:

Cushion cut

Cushion-cut diamonds are the most economical diamond shape, making them an excellent option for a sophisticated yet budget-conscious buy.

Cushion cut diamonds are a favorite choice for budget-conscious brides, and in recent years, there has been a noticeable resurgence of interest in this classy design. Larger facets on the cushion facilitate light's effective passage throughout the diamond, giving it an alluring glitter.

They also give off a vintage vibe, being the most common diamond shape in the 1800s and early 1900s. Modern cushions feature 64 facets, while older cushions have 57.

The best part is that you never have to worry about any sharp corners chipping because of its soft, rounded edges.

Princess cut

Princess-cut diamonds are among the most widely used fancy diamond shapes and also among the least expensive.

Because less raw diamond needs to be taken in order to create this shape during the cutting process, princess-cut diamonds are incredibly inexpensive. These square diamonds have a glitzy brilliance and a contemporary, geometric design.

To prevent any unintentional chipping, make sure the princess diamond you purchase has prongs covering its sharp corners.

Marquise

It is said that the whimsical diamond form was inspired by the lips of King Louis XV's mistress, the Marquise de Pompadour.

The marquise, sometimes called a navette (French for "little ship"), is a long, curved piece of Lab Grown or Moissanite jewelry with pointed ends that stretch the wearer's fingers in an effortless manner.

Because of their longer shape than round diamonds of the same carat weight, marquise diamonds appear larger, so you can buy a sizable diamond without breaking the bank.
