Celebrity Marquise Cut Diamond Engagement Rings

Marquise cut diamond rings are a classic and have captured the hearts of many since the beginning of the 18th Century. First made by a French jeweler under the orders of King Louis XV of France for his mistress, they resemble the idea of a little ship and are also considered to be football shaped diamonds. Over the years, this modified brilliant cut has evolved into the stunning diamond shape we know today, boasting 60 facets and two pointy ends on each side, giving it a stylish and elegant look.

A marquise cut diamond is adored for its appeal and is popular among celebrities and fashionistas because of its unique long and narrow shape with pointy endings that draw attention to the fingers, making them look elongated.
