Asscher cut engagement ring
The asscher cut engagement ring is a very unique engagement ring, this special diamond cut was first created by the Asscher brothers in Holland in the early 1900′s.
In 1980 the asscher diamond company received a royal title from Her Majesty Queen Juliana of Holland, what made them the Royal Asscher Diamond Company.
The asscher cut resembles an octagon shape with terraced facets. The asscher cut is also very similar to an emerald cut except it is more of square and the emerald cut is more rectangular, even the pavilion cut is similar with rectangular facets.
The asscher cut is patented and all the genuine stones got a unique ID on them, which is visible with a microscope, that is what makes it easy to tell if it is a genuine asscher cut or not.
It is important to know when buying an asscher cut that because of this special cut it is easier to see flaws, inclusion and color, it emphasizes the clarity of the diamond. So if you are aiming for a slightly included (SI clarity) or lower clarity diamond, make sure the inclusion of the diamond is not in the center of the stone but on the sides, because it may be visible when it is set to a ring. You can view the exact location of the inclusion by checking its certificate looking at the diamond drawing. It is recommended to go for a higher quality diamond when buying an asscher cut engagement ring.
The asscher cut is a more expensive stone, If you intend to go for a bigger diamond and you are on a tight budget, better go with other shapes or go with a smaller elegant asscher cut, which you won’t regret getting this unique cut.
