Emerald Cut Lab-Grown Diamond Engagement Rings
Channel vintage sophistication with our emerald cut lab-grown diamonds. Their elegant step-cuts and elongated silhouette create a "hall of mirrors" effect beloved by style icons from Grace Kelly to Amal Clooney.
Emerald Cut Highlights:
✓ Vintage Charm: Art Deco-inspired elegance
✓ Clarity Showcase: Highlights diamond purity
✓ Elongating Effect: Makes fingers appear longer
✓ Sustainable Choice: No mining required
Why do emerald cut diamonds look different than other shapes?
Emerald cuts showcase a unique "hall of mirrors" effect due to their:
- Step-cut Faceting: Long, parallel facets create clean flashes of light rather than scattered sparkle
- Open Table: The large, flat top highlights the diamond's clarity and depth
- Lower Dispersion: Shows more white light reflections than colored fire
Pro Tip:Emerald cuts require higher clarity grades (VS2+) because their open design makes inclusions more visible. All Alya Stone emerald cuts are:
✓ Hand-selected to minimize visible inclusions
✓ Paired with claw prongs that enhance their linear beauty
✓ Available in elongated ratios(1.3-1.4) for a modern look
✓ Belong to VS2+ clarity grade
Why do emerald cut diamonds need higher clarity grades than other shapes?
The emerald cut's signature "hall of mirrors" effect makes inclusions more visible due to:
• Large Open Table: Shows 15-20% more of the diamond's interior than brilliant cuts.
• Step-Cut Facets: Long, parallel facets act like windows rather than light diffusers.
Our clarity standards:
✓ VS2+ for stones >1ct (inclusions are more noticeable at larger sizes)
✓ Eye-clean guarantee for all center stones (viewable under 10x magnification)
✓ Exclusion of specific inclusions: No feathers or clouds near corners where stress concentrates
Expert Tip: Pair with a "gallery rail" setting (like our cathedral design) to add structural support while complementing the linear aesthetics.
Do emerald cuts sparkle differently than rounds?
They create "flash" rather than "fire":
- Mirror-Like Reflections: Clean, bold light movements
- Less Color Dispersion: Shows more white light than rainbow
- Dramatic in Low Light: Performs exceptionally under candlelight
