An engagement ring is more than just a piece of jewelry—it’s a symbol of your love, commitment, and future. If you’re considering an oval diamond ring, you’re already leaning toward elegance, brilliance, and timeless beauty. But before you make your final decision, here are the key things you should know—brought to you by the experts at KRK Jewels.
The Oval Cut Advantage
Oval diamonds are a brilliant-cut shape, meaning they sparkle almost as much as a round diamond. Their elongated design flatters the finger and gives the illusion of a larger size, offering excellent visual value per carat.
Length-to-Width Ratio Matters
The shape of your oval diamond depends on its length-to-width ratio. A ratio between 1.30 and 1.50 is considered ideal. A shorter ratio will look rounder, while a longer one appears more slender. KRK Jewels can help you find the perfect proportions for your style.
Watch for the Bow-Tie Effect
Most oval diamonds have a visible “bow-tie” shadow across the center. It’s normal—but in a well-cut diamond, it’s minimal and doesn’t interfere with brilliance. At KRK Jewels, we handpick diamonds that balance light performance with beauty.
Choose the Right Setting
Oval diamonds are versatile and look stunning in various settings:
Solitaire: Classic and elegant.
Halo: Enhances size and sparkle.
Three-Stone: Adds depth and symbolism.
East-West: A bold, modern twist.
KRK’s in-house designers can guide you through all the possibilities.
