Octagon cut diamond jewellery has generated great interest since its invention, and it is renowned for its unique shape and beauty. As you might imagine, octagon cut diamonds have eight sides, giving them an incredibly dynamic and geometric shape. Octagonal rings are very popular due to their ability to produce a unique shine and sparkle, and also their singular rarity.
Octagon cut diamond jewellery can be rare, and more difficult to find than other diamond shapes. Octagon cut diamonds have been popular for over a century, and display the talent and dedication of stonecutters throughout history. Octagon cut diamonds have gained popularity due to their clean lines, and chic geometric look. They are often used as parts of a jewellery design, but they can also be displayed on their own, in octagonal rings.
Octagon cut diamonds can be cut in many different ways and use lots of different cutting techniques - they are usually also emerald cut, brilliant cut or Asscher cut. As you might imagine, every octagon cut diamond has 8 sides. However, the facet pattern can be modified when it comes to creating octagon cut diamonds. Octagonal rings and other octagon cut diamond jewellery can utilise a lot of different cutting techniques, making them one of the most interesting jewellery choices on the market today.
Octagon cut diamond jewellery has generated great interest for over a century. However, it was incredibly popular during the 1920s, as throughout the period, geometric patterns and designs were very popular. After the First World War, society wanted to progress from the old traditional designs. Geometric designs with clean lines became very popular, representing modernity and change, meaning designs such as octagon cut diamond jewellery are very popular in collections of art deco engagement rings. However, octagon rings have been popular throughout many decades, and are still popular even today.
Octagon rings and jewellery are a popular choice for engagement rings for many people, as the unique design allows the inner quality of the stone to shine. Many octagon cut diamonds are sought after as they are said to display 8 equal hearts when the wearer looks directly at the stone. This is thought to be incredibly romantic, making octagon cut diamond rings the perfect option if you’re looking for the perfect engagement ring.
