FERGUS’S TOP 3 OVAL TIPS

Focus on Dimensions

Check the actual mm length and width dimensions (noted on the diamond certificate) of the Oval not just the carat weight. A well cut 0.9ct oval will have better dimensions, and look bigger, than many 1ct oval diamonds. Considering this helps to maximize visual impact and reduce the cost.

Check the Length to Width Ratio

Not all Ovals are the same “shape”. Some are longer and thinner (they have a high LTW ratio) whilst others are shorter and fatter (they have a low LTW ratio). A nice length to width ratio is between 1.3 – 1.6. L/W=LTW Ratio

Colour is Important

Ovals show colour more than round diamonds because of their large spread. For a single solitaire design aim for i colour or better. For a halo design aim for G colour or better.

OVAL ENGAGEMENT RINGS

The real impact of an oval diamond engagement ring lies in the spread of this particular shape. For example, a 1 ct oval shape looks significantly larger than other 1 carat diamonds in different shapes with the exception of a marquise shape. The oval diamond also grows in beauty with size so is a really popular shape for celebrities in the market for anoval diamond ring. Blake Lively, Jennifer Aniston and Hailey Bieber all have large oval diamond engagement rings. Whilst Blake Lively has a unique rose gold ring with sweeping lines and original curves, Hailey Bieber sports a rather more classic oval ring in a beautifully elegant four claw setting. So what made these ladies select an oval shape above other popular shapes such as emerald, round, pear and asscher cut diamonds? Whilst we don’t know the exact answer it would be safe to say that the impact and dazzling shape had something to do with it. Buying a 3 carat, 4 carat or 5 carat oval ring is going to cost but a 1 carat oval shaped diamond will be in the reach of most people.
