Architectural lines and a mirror-like effect
Emerald-cut diamonds have a rectangular outline with clipped corners and long step facets. Their broad flashes of light give a different look from brilliant-cut shapes. Choose proportions that suit your hand and assess the individual stone in person where possible.
Designed around you
Emerald-Cut ring setting ideas
East-west or bezel
Explore a horizontal orientation or a metal frame around the stone for a clean, contemporary design. Discuss how the setting changes the appearance.
Three-stone ring
Pair the centre diamond with complementary side stones, such as tapered baguettes, to create a balanced geometric design.
AI-generated design inspiration, not current stock or previous commissions. Your final setting, metal and specifications are agreed in your quotation.
Choose your diamond with confidence
The open step facets can make inclusions and colour easier to notice. Compare eye-clean appearance, brightness and the pattern of light and dark as the diamond moves. A certificate is useful, but the appearance of the actual stone matters too.
Diagem is a diamond dealer with over 25 years in the trade. David helps you select the diamond, then the ring is designed and made around that stone.
Explore GIA-certified natural diamonds or IGI-certified lab-grown diamonds. Selected physical stones can be viewed by appointment, subject to availability.

Your emerald-cut ring questions
Is an emerald-cut diamond a green emerald?
No. Emerald cut describes the shape and faceting style of the diamond. This page is about diamond engagement rings.
Do emerald-cut diamonds sparkle like round diamonds?
They have a different light pattern: broad flashes and a mirror-like step-facet effect rather than the smaller flashes typical of brilliant cuts.
What clarity should I choose?
Assess whether the individual diamond looks clean to your eye. The open facets can reveal inclusions more readily; David can help compare suitable stones rather than choosing by grade alone.
Can I choose a natural or lab-grown emerald-cut diamond?
Yes. Discuss GIA-certified natural diamonds or IGI-certified lab-grown diamonds with David. Suitable stones and viewing arrangements are confirmed individually, subject to availability.
How much does an emerald-cut engagement ring cost?
The quotation depends on the diamond, metal, setting and design. Share your total ring budget with David for suitable options and a quotation before manufacturing.
Where can I view diamonds?
David arranges Johannesburg viewings and Cape Town appointments where suitable. Confirm the selected diamonds and appointment arrangements before travelling.
