Emerald Cut Engagement Rings

An emerald cut is a step cut: long, parallel facets form mirrored panels that let you see into the stone, with sparkle mostly at the edges. It has a glass-like look rather than high sparkle, so it needs higher colour and clarity. Treat these emerald cut engagement rings as starting points for a lab-grown or natural emerald cut, at our Toronto studio or virtually. Looking for the green gemstone instead?

FAQ

Is an emerald cut the same as an emerald?

No. Emerald cut is the name of a step-cut shape, while an emerald is a green gemstone. The emerald cut is not limited to diamonds: we can cut it in any gemstone or in moissanite. Our emerald engagement rings page shows the green stone.

Why does clarity matter more in an emerald cut?

Its mirror-like panels give a full view of the stone inside and out, while a brilliant cut's sparkle can mask imperfections. We suggest VS2 clarity or higher, or a very clean SI1, and H colour or higher depending on your own sensitivity.

Which celebrities have emerald cut engagement rings?

Famous emerald cut rings have been worn by Jackie O and Grace Kelly, and today by Beyoncé and Amal Clooney. You can try on replicas of these famous emerald cut rings at our Toronto studio.

How long does it take to make a custom emerald cut engagement ring?

Anywhere from 2 to 8 weeks generally. The exact timeline will largely depend on you. Generally it takes longer the more involved you want to be in the design approval process. Let us know what timeline you need your ring within and we’ll make sure it happens.
