Princess cut diamonds are true squares; they are the only popularized shape with pointed corners whereas most other shapes have rounded corners or cut corners. Is this royal shape the center stone for you?
Unlike other gem cuts, cushions have more than one popular type of cut: the Modified Brilliant Cut and the Antique Cushion Cut, also known as the Old Mine Cut. Modified brilliant cushion cuts have always been one of the top five most popular options for engagement rings, but in the last year, antique cushions have slowly been moving their way up.
Marquise cut diamonds are oval, with sharply pointed ends. Slim and graceful, they’re equally at home in engagement rings and wedding bands. The elongated shape is not just beautiful but also makes the wearer’s fingers seem longer and slimmer.
Resembling the emerald cut, the Asscher cut offers excellent clarity and plenty of fire, combined with symmetry not found with other cuts. We love it so much at Lauren B, we made it our logo! Is it the right center stone for you?
Though lab diamonds have been around for decades and are constantly growing in popularity, several common misconceptions still plague the industry. The truth is, lab-grown diamonds are a less expensive, equally beautiful, and equally real option. But we’ll arrive at that point after addressing the different incorrect ideas some people tend to hold about lab diamonds.
Gemstones come in all shapes and cuts. From the classic round brilliant to modern hybrid cuts, each shape and cut has a unique quality that sets it apart from the others.
Lab-grown diamonds are at the center of constant debate in engagement ring circles, although the oldest of those discussions is officially put to rest. Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds. However, just because they are created in a laboratory doesn’t mean they’re all created using the same process. Introducing CVD vs. HPHT.
Our last Gemstone Guide was only just the beginning. With so many gems out there and in our inventory, we’re here to give you part two.
Deciding on the perfect shape is one of the most exciting parts of picking out a diamond. Everyone has their own taste and opinion. Perhaps you have a personal reason for preferring a certain cut, or maybe you just like the way it looks more than the rest. There’s certainly no wrong shape out there, and they’re all appealing in their own ways. From the elegance of a marquise-cut stone to the simplicity and sparkle of a diamond, there’s always something to love.
When most people think of classic diamond shapes, they don’t think of pears. However, in recent years, pear shapes have held their place as one of the most popular diamond shapes! Their unique cut makes them a great choice for those who want something classic with a little twist.
If you’re considering buying a lab-grown diamond, customizing a lab-grown diamond engagement ring, or purchasing a lab-grown diamond wedding band, Lauren B is the best option out there!
It’s safe to say, round brilliant cuts are synonymous with diamonds in general. However, they were not the first diamond cut and have only been around for a little over 100 years. So what makes them so special and sought after?
