Heart Shaped Diamonds

A diamond cutter uses a lot of care and precision when forming the outline of the heart as it is one of the hardest shapes to perfect. When looking at a heart shape diamond, you want to ensure the lobes match up and that it is symmetrical. Our gemologists can give you a hand when looking for a well cut heart!

The most important thing to look for in a heart shaped diamond is the symmetry. Does it look even when looking at it straight on? Make sure both sides look the same and one lobe isn’t larger than the other. Chatting with one of our gemologists is a great place to start.

Just like any other fine diamond jewelry, heart shaped diamonds should be stored separately from other pieces in a jewelry box when not being worn. Be sure to take the jewelry off when putting on lotion or any other personal care products, as well as when engaging in physical activity, showering, cleaning, sleeping or swimming.

Determining whether or not a heart shaped diamond is right for you is going to be up to personal preference and style. Some questions you can ask yourself include: Do I like the way a heart shaped diamond looks? Do I like what a heart shaped diamond represents? Will I be happy wearing a heart shaped diamond engagement ring? If you answered yes to all three, then a heart shaped diamond is the shape for you!

The setting choice is all up to personal preference and style. Heart shaped diamonds look great in all the different setting options we have available, including solitaire, pave, halo, hidden halo and even three stone. If you need some help narrowing down a setting style, head over to our chat section to be connected immediately with a live graduate gemologist who would be more than happy to help you out.

Any metal type is going to accent a heart shaped diamond beautifully. This is another choice that is up to personal preference and style. All of our setting styles are available in 14 or 18 karat white, yellow or rose gold or platinum.

Since the heart shaped diamond is not the most popular diamond shape, they do tend to be on the pricier side due to the lack of inventory that most retailers have, but with the help of our Rare Carat deal score and a live gemologist, you can be certain that you’ll find a well priced, great heart shaped diamond on our site!

Heart shaped diamonds are not tacky, they just aren’t as popular as the other diamond shapes. Some people prefer to use heart shaped diamonds in a pendant or a pair of earrings rather than an engagement ring, but it’s completely up to personal preference and style. You do you!

Heart shaped diamonds are the least popular diamond shape currently on the market when compared to the 9 other standard shapes (round, oval, cushion, asscher, emerald, princess, marquise, radiant and pear). But just because they aren’t the most popular shape, doesn’t mean they aren’t a good choice. If you love a heart shaped diamond, then that’s the shape you should go for! Feel free to reach out to a gemologist in chat to get started on finding the best heart shaped diamond for you.
