BAGUETTE SHAPED ENGAGEMENT RINGS
Baguette is a very unique shape. These diamonds work particularly well as side stones in a custom design. They can also look very contemporary in a simple solitaire ring. The baguette cut shape normally comes in small weights, less than one carat.
Due to its smaller size, it tends to be measured by its dimensional size, rather than its carat weight. The length to width ratio of this accent stone is ideally 1.5 to 1. As a step cut stone the baguette cut shape usually has only 14 facets, fewer than the number of facets used for the emerald cut. Like the emerald cut, however, the baguette cut diamond should be of high quality, as its shape and cut can reveal more of its flaws.
