Marquise-Cut Diamond Engagement Rings

If you're looking for an engagement ring with edge and vintage flair in one pretty diamond package, look no further than a marquise. Marquise-cut diamonds boast a lengthy shape with pointed edges for an elegant and simultaneously cool-girl finish. Like pear engagement rings, these once-popular settings are experiencing quite the renaissance; with modern brides clamoring for an updated take on the popular cut. Thanks to a marquise's elongated shape, these diamonds are begging to be adorned. You can opt to pair your marquise with two side stones, or a twinkling halo for added glamour. With east-west settings becoming an increasingly popular choice for brides who want something more one-of-a-kind, marquise-shaped diamonds are a natural choice. Color also pairs well with this uniquely-shaped diamond—whether you want colored side-stones or a saturated gem front and center. Of course, there's nothing wrong with going classic either: A marquise looks just as great as a solitaire as it does in a sideways-set halo. And for the vintage brides out there, there are plenty of ways to achieve that aesthetic with dainty details. Jewelers like Anna Sheffield, Bario Neal, Tacori, and Monique Pean are re-popularizing this unique cut for the latest batch of brides—and it's easy to see why!
