The
Oval cut is elliptical in shape and is a variation of the round
brilliant cut diamond. The oval shaped diamond gives a flattering
illusion of length to the finger and hand, and is popular among
women with small hands or short fingers. It can also accentuate
long, slender fingers.
Length
to width ratio: An oval cut with a length to width ratio of approximately
1.40 - 1.60 is the preference of most diamond buyers. For those
who prefer a rounder look, choose a ratio closer to 1.15:1. For
those who prefer a more elongated shape, look for a ratio of 1.70:1
