The "emerald" cut of diamond is another square or rectangular shaped diamond. As opposed to the brilliant cut, however, with its triangular or four sided diamond cut facets, the "emerald" cut of diamond has step cut facets. The term "step cut" refers to the step-like look of the facet cuts.
The emerald cut has 58 facets (25 crown, 8 girdle and 25 pavilion). Because of the angle, size and shape of the facets, the emerald cut shows less brilliance and fire (dispersion) than the other brilliant cut diamonds. However, the emerald cut stone reveals a classic beauty and elegance not seen in other cuts. The look of an emerald cut diamond is subtle and understated with less "flash," or reflection and refraction than brilliant cuts.
Aspect ratio of an Emerald Cut: The ratio of the length to the width should be about 1.5:1 and the VS1-2 range is recommended as a minimum Emerald cut diamonds are often 'paired' with other side stones.
The emerald cut diamond can be absolutely stunning. Because of it's long lines, it tends to be less fiery than a "round brilliant" cut, but it also tends to have broader, more dramatic flashes of light. The trim lines of emerald cut diamonds lend an elegant, sophisticated air to both the simplest and most elaborate ring settings.
Because of its large open facets, higher clarity grades (VS2 and above for GIA and VS1 and above for EGL, to ensure it is completely eye clean) are usually recommended for emerald cut diamonds.
As with the Asscher and Cushion cuts, more rectangular shapes (larger ratios) help to elongate shorter fingers.
The emerald cut is also one of the most popular and widely available non-round cuts, so you shouldn’t have too much trouble finding a decent variety of emerald cut diamonds from which to choose. Furthermore, in part because the emerald cut generally isn’t considered an “ideal” cut in the same way that the round brilliant is, emerald cut diamonds can be markedly more affordable than otherwise comparable round diamonds.
