Common Questions

1. How does a rectangle cut compare to a classic round cut in terms of brilliance?

The rectangle’s elongated facets direct light across a broader surface, often creating a more directional sparkle that appears larger from certain angles, whereas a round cut offers uniform fire from every viewpoint.

2. What budget range should I expect for a genuine rectangle engagement ring?

Expect a spectrum from $8,000 for a modest carat weight set in 14K gold to $35,000+ for premium diamonds mounted in platinum, with the price reflecting cut precision, clarity, and setting complexity.

3. Will the rectangle setting hold up to daily wear and retain its value over decades?

High‑karat platinum provides exceptional durability, and a well‑engineered prong or bezel guard protects the girdle; combined with the rarity of the shape, these factors help the piece maintain both appearance and resale value over time.
