The marquise cut features a distinctive elongated shape with pointed ends, offering the largest face-up area of any diamond shape for its carat weight. Its boat-like silhouette creates a dramatic, regal presence on the finger and makes the stone appear significantly larger than other shapes of the same weight.

Warm, timeless, and universally flattering. 18K yellow gold contains 75% pure gold and has a rich, warm tone that has been the traditional choice for fine jewellery and engagement rings for centuries. Its natural colour will never fade or require re-plating.

The £5,000–£7,500 range is where natural diamond engagement rings truly shine. Expect a 1ct–1.5ct natural diamond with excellent cut quality in your choice of premium setting and metal.
