The heart is the universal symbol of love and nowhere is it more evident than in a heart diamond. This particular cut requires the skills of an expert diamond craftsman though. A diamond where the cleft between the two lobes happens to be sharply pronounced and where the lower curves meet each other perfectly giving the stone a slightly rounded look at the bottom is considered to be the best possible shape of a heart diamond.

It is not a classic cut though and is defined as a modified brilliant cut or a revised oval diamond by the connoisseurs. Despite being shaped as a heart, this diamond is not very popular when set in an engagement ring nor does it hold much appeal as part of the wedding jewelry set. The heart cut is instead used for less formal occasions and make excellent gifts on Valentine’s Day or anniversaries and birthdays. The heart cut also looks better when fashioned into a pendant or necklace and matching earrings rather than a ring. Promise rings, however, are an exception where a brilliant sparkling heart diamond is usually found in the form of solitaire.

It might help to check out the reputed jewelry stores in Dallas and elsewhere that specialize in fancy cut diamonds when you are keen on a heart cut stone. The symmetry of the diamond is all-important here else the shape will not resemble a heart at all. 59 facets happen to be the standard for a heart-shaped diamond but the number of lower facets may vary sharply from diamond to diamond.It also pays to check the quality of the diamond when looking for a heart cut. A flat diamond will look dull and the entire purpose of purchasing a heart diamond as a romantic gift gets lost here. Again, a small diamond below 50-carat weight will be inconsequential as the shape will not be etched out well especially when the stone is set in prongs. The small sized heart diamonds of 50 carats or slightly more look better in bezel or a three pronged setting that accentuates the shape of a heart clearly. The length to width ratio of a classic heart shaped diamond is usually 1.0 but many individuals prefer a narrower heart with the ratio wavering between 1.05 to 1.15. Most solitaire rings, however, have a wider heart diamond embedded in the setting.
