Shape
Similar to emerald-cut diamonds, Asscher-cut diamonds embody the radiant shimmer that step-cut diamond styles are renowned for, creating a hall of mirrors-like effect. Like their emerald-cut diamond cousins, Asscher-cut diamonds are reminiscent of the 1920s art-deco era, making these stones appealing to those who prefer an antique aesthetic. Asscher-cut diamonds are square-shaped with cut corners, complementing modern and traditional jewelry settings equally. The step-cut faceting of Asscher cut diamonds makes them transparent like windows, making it necessary to select a greater clarity. Since inclusions are more noticeable with this particular cut, we recommend choosing an Asscher-cut diamond with a VS2 clarity grade or higher.
All Ritani earth-grown diamonds are certified by the AGS or GIA—the world’s most respected independent grading labs. If you need help selecting your Asscher-cut diamond, contact us at 1-888-9RITANI or chat now!
