Why Women Like Asscher Cut Diamonds

Women love Asscher cut engagement Rings for many reasons one of which is the fact that these diamonds have a quadrilateral shape appeal. quadrilateral shaped diamonds are very much in these days with the upholstery cut and Asscher cut diamonds rising fast in popularity as far as prominent town stones for engagement Rings are concerned. The princess cut solitaire is the most popular quadrilateral diamond, however for sheer elegance and class no other quadrilateral cut admittedly comes close to this pioneeRing step cut. It is not a new solitaire cut by any means but it is an revision over the approved emerald cut shape because of the extra facets on the pavilion and a steeper crown which both add to its increased scintillation when compared to the regular 58 facet emerald cut.

With step cut diamonds like the emerald and Asscher, you typically have to go for a cleaner solitaire since the big quadrilateral facets allow big viewing windows into the stone leaving microscopic chance to hide small inclusions that would otherwise not be graphic in a typical brillianteered solitaire like round brilliants, ovals, upholstery cuts, or even marquise cuts. Women like this aspect of the step cut solitaire because generally speaking when we shop for diamonds we would like the least estimate of inclusions potential to be graphic in our diamond. So when women see a step cut solitaire like an octagon cut they automatically assume that the solitaire is high-quality because women are not apt to choose an emerald cut with clear eye graphic inclusions. In order to avoid this they have to go for a higher clarity grade than they would commonly want to pay for in a solitaire that was not a step cut. So without even having to have great optics and good symmetry, an emerald cut solitaire suggests high quality simply by being an emerald cut diamond.

The same goes for an Asscher cut which is also a step cut solitaire where facets run parallel to each other in big quadrilateral panes albeit smaller ones when compared to an octagon cut. You generally have to get a clarity grade higher than what you would commonly settle for in a regular brillianteered diamond. Although it must be said that with an Asscher cut its increased estimate of facets does allow for some portion of hiding inclusions. You will be able to get away with small inclusions near the girdle of the stone because when you look into an Asscher cut the facet pattern tends to draw an observer's eye down the town of the stone much in the way that dart board with its concentric circles divided up into light and dark panels draws your eye to the bull's-eye town of the board.
