Oval engagement rings are an elegant way to accentuate and complement slender, long fingers without sacrificing any of the brilliance of a round diamond. If you love the sparkle and brilliance of a round diamond, but want a slightly less traditional shape, consider an oval shaped diamond. You will not be disappointed!

As with all diamond shapes, the quality of the cut will be the most significant factor in determining the sparkle and brilliance of your diamond. Oval diamond measurements may vary as well, resulting in a longer, more elongated shape, or a more circular stone.

Sometimes oval diamonds, like pear shaped diamonds and other elongated cuts, can be subject to what’s known as the “bow tie” effect. This refers to a small darker spot in the very center of the diamond. This is quite common, and is only a cause for concern if this dark spot is obvious and is visible from all angles regardless of lighting.

Oval diamonds require a six-prong setting in order to remain properly secure. Despite this limitation, there are still a large number of settings and styles to choose from. Oval diamonds are an elegant choice in either a solitaire setting or a setting with sidestones. In some settings, the diamond sits length-wise, while in others it sits width-wise. These aesthetic details are subject to your own taste.
