Marquise Cut Engagement Rings in Vancouver

Marquise diamonds have an elongated outline with pointed ends, creating excellent finger coverage and a bold, elegant profile. Their brilliant-style faceting produces lively sparkle, while their shape can appear larger face-up than many diamonds of similar carat weight.

Symmetry is critical: both points should align, the sides should mirror one another and the widest section should feel balanced. Review the bow-tie effect and ensure the setting protects both tips.

What to Compare

• Alignment and symmetry of both points
• Length-to-width ratio
• Bow-tie visibility
• Face-up spread
• Protective V-prongs or bezel coverage

Marquise diamonds work well in solitaire, east-west, halo and three-stone designs. North-south placement creates a lengthening effect; east-west placement gives the classic shape a more contemporary character.
