Oval Cut Engagement Rings

The ratio of the diamond should to be considered, for it affects the shape of the diamond. If you prefer a longer oval shape diamond, you need to look for one with a larger ratio, while those who prefer a more rounded form you need to look for a diamond with a smaller ratio. A ratio of 1.33 to 1.66 provides a good traditional range of oval-shaped diamonds.Like other fancy shapes, if the stone is improperly proportioned, a gray to black bow tie may appear across the width of the stone when viewed face up.
