We offer - Asscher Cut Diamonds

Asscher cut diamonds are renowned for their distinctive shape and timeless elegance, making them a favorite among connoisseurs of fine jewelry. Created in the early 20th century by Joseph Asscher, this cut features a square or rectangular shape with cropped corners and a unique step-cut facet arrangement. The result is a mesmerizing optical effect that showcases the diamond’s clarity and color, reminiscent of a vintage Art Deco aesthetic.

The hallmark of the Asscher cut is its deep pavilion, which allows for impressive depth and scintillation. The facets are arranged in a way that creates a striking 'X' pattern when viewed from above, enhancing the diamond’s overall brilliance and making it stand out in any setting. The Asscher cut is known for its ability to reflect light beautifully, providing a captivating play of light and depth that draws the eye.



Asscher cut diamonds are often selected for their classic and sophisticated appearance, making them an excellent choice for engagement rings, earrings, and other fine jewelry pieces. Their geometric design and vintage charm appeal to those who appreciate the artistry of diamond cutting and the elegance of timeless styles.
