Marquise Diamond Engagement Rings

A marquise diamond, also known as a "navette" or "boat-shaped" diamond, is an elongated, oval-shaped stone with pointed ends. This cut maximizes the carat weight, giving the appearance of a larger diamond. Its elegant, elongated shape creates a stunning, regal look, and it’s especially flattering on the finger, making the hand appear longer and more slender.

The best wedding band for a marquise engagement ring is one that complements its unique shape. A contoured band is a popular choice, as it can hug the marquise's pointed ends and create a seamless, harmonious look. Alternatively, a classic straight band, like a Diamond Pavé Band or a Tapered Gold Band can provide a lovely contrast, emphasizing the marquise diamond’s distinctive shape.
