Oval Cut Diamond

Lazare Kaplan, a celebrated Russian diamond cutter, created the oval cut to offer the brilliance of a round diamond in an elongated, elegant shape.

The oval cut’s lengthened design gives it an airy and sophisticated appearance while maintaining the intense brilliance of a round cut.

Many oval diamonds display a subtle bow-tie shadow in the center, which can add character to the stone if not overly prominent.

The extended surface area of an oval cut makes it appear larger than a round diamond of the same carat weight, offering excellent visual value.

Whether set in a solitaire, halo, or three-stone design, the oval cut’s graceful shape complements both modern and traditional settings.
