Asscher Cut Diamond Solitaire Engagement Rings
Here you will find asscher cut diamond solitaire engagement rings in a variety of styles and prices. There is plenty to choose from so your perfect ring awaits.Asscher cut diamond solitaire engagement rings are very similar to emerald cut ones. The only difference between the two is that emerald cut diamonds tend to be rectangular, while asscher cut ones are square. Besides that, the same style and technique is used in the diamonds themselves.
So when you look at an asscher cut diamond engagement ring you need to be aware of the same things. Its pavilion or lower portion of the diamond is cut with rectangular facets, although the overall shape of the stone itself remains square. This makes the diamond appear open, with the quality or lack thereof very obvious.
This is why you need to make sure you buy a quality asscher cut diamond ring. Gems with larger, more open facets really show-off their internal features. In the case of diamonds, this is really good if you have a high quality one, but not so good if you buy a cheap lower quality one. It is for this reason that we try to only list rings with good clarity ratings.
In terms of color you should also be aware that asscher cut diamonds tend to show a little more color for a given rating than a round cut brilliant one would. Thus, an I or J rated diamond which normally falls under low end of the near colorless range, may show a little color, which would no be present in another cut at the same rating.
Finally, you should think abut the size of diamond you want. Many people try to get as big a diamond as they can reasonably afford. If you believe bigger is always better then by all means do this. However, if you want a quality engagement ring you need to think about the other features of the diamond besides size.
Keep in mind what I mentioned above. Smaller, whiter and clearer diamonds can be as much or more than larger, less white, less clear ones. My recommendation is to aim on the high end of of color and clarity ratings and choose a smaller stone. This is especially important when looking at asscher cut diamond solitaire engagement rings due to the points previously mentioned.
One other consideration is your choice of setting. Make sure you get a proper setting for an asscher cut diamond when buying a ring. The last thing you want is your diamond coming off your ring. Be conscious of the fact that different metals can also significantly change the price of your ring.
In general you should choose a metal for your setting and ring that roughly reflects the price of your diamond if bought separately or price point in generally if you are buying together. So if you are buying a tiny 0.1 carat stone then a 10K gold ring might make sense. However, if you are buying a $20,000 asscher cut diamond ring it makes no sense for it to be made of 10K gold. Instead go for 18K gold or better yet platinum or palladium.
