Their long surface makes them look bigger than other diamonds, regardless of the carat.
Emerald diamond rings have been around for centuries, with their first appearance dating back to the 16th century. Due to its sparkle and relatively easier cutting process, its demand skyrocketed. However, it was not until the 1920s that it got its name. Furthermore, with Art Deco design becoming a household name, emerald cut engagement rings gained more appreciation and demand.
Its symmetrical design, chiseled lines, and beauty made it a hit among engagement jewelry. Everyone wanted to sport an emerald cut on their hand, from royalty to celebrities to their fans.
