The Intriguing Asscher Cut Engagement Ring

If you're looking for a square shaped diamond engagement ring that showcases the natural clarity and luster of a diamond, you may have found your perfect match with an Asscher Cut Engagement Ring. The Asscher was developed in 1902 by Joseph Asscher and experienced its first surge of popularity during the Art Deco period. This patented shape may often be described as a squared emerald, but actually carries a specific set of cut patterns that distinguish it from the Emerald Cut. The large table, or top of the stone draws the eye down into a hall-of-mirrors facet pattern which captures and reflects light in a mesmerizing way.

The lines of this profile will be clean and symmetrical and clarity is very important since it has such a large table. Much like the charming beauty of an emerald cut diamond engagement ring; this shape enhances a stone's color, clarity and luster as opposed to maximizing brilliance found in other diamonds such as the princess or round brilliant.
