Which is the Best Trendy Diamond shape for a Engagement Ring? - VII

Marquise = Dramatic
I love the history associated to this shape. Legend has it that this cut was invented when the King of France Louis XIV, ordered a diamond to be shaped resembling the smile of Marquise de Pompadour, his mistress. The uniquely tapered shape, essentially an oval with rounded sides and pointed edges, actually resembles the shape of lips. The clever cut can make the diamond look larger than it really is and can make fingers look leaner and more slender.

Celebrities with marquise diamonds
