One of the most popular shaped diamonds in recent years, the Oval Cut is both classic and stylish, offering a slender finger and outstanding fire, while Moissanite is ideal for oval rings thanks to its high refractive index and affordable price.
Oval moissanite buying points:
- **Length to width ratio**: Recommended **1.3-1.5** (long and thin), over 1.7 may be unbalanced.
- **Avoid the ‘bow-tie effect “**: bad cuts can lead to dark bands on the countertop (choose moissanite with ”Excellent’ symmetry).
