Passion for Asscher

Asscher cut diamond engagement ring - style 2581ash85

The Asscher cut diamond was developed in 1902 by the Asscher Brothers of Holland as an exclusive diamond cut for the Royal Family.

An Asscher cut diamond is cut with a series of many parallel steps, creating a hall-of-mirrors effect when looking deeply into the stone.

Regal certainly, but I bet those Asscher brothers never anticipated the swooning for this shape that would ensue after an asscher-cut diamond was featured on Sex & The City, and then worn by Hollywood royalty, Kate Hudson.

Truly, the Asscher cut diamond is an intriguing hybrid: using of the step-cuts that are a hallmark of the  emerald-cut diamond, combined with the squared shape of the princess-cut, and further utilizing the cross-cuts often seen in radiant stones –  it is a modern marvel.

In keeping with the clean, art deco appeal of the diamond cut itself — and the haute couture company that this diamond often keeps — this 3 carat Asscher diamond is framed within a contemporary Tacori engagement ring setting with a  high-polished cleanly-shaped rounded platinum band.

The  diamond fire and refractive heat of the Asscher  itself is fanned ablaze with sophisticated diamond baguettes on each side. From the profile, Tacori’s signature crescent silhouette accents provide windows of light into this magnificent engagement ring, worthy of Royal attention.

She’s elegant, regal, and is rightfully the center of attention.  All hail, The Princess!

From the 2010 collection of “Blooming Beauties”, Tacori creates a showstopping engagement ring with a 2-carat Princess cut diamond.  With the incredible 58-faceted Princess diamond as the star of this engagement ring, a double-halo of glittering pave-set diamond enhancers crown this regal sparkler with a light-filled coronet of diamonds.

The unique engagement ring setting creates a romantic vintage vibe with its  intricately set pave-stones studded throughout the platinum, and is balanced with the modern swirl of angel wings which reach to embrace the princess-cut center diamond.

Whether you’re a Princess lover or not, even critics have to admit that this Princess rules!

Geometry of Diamonds

Tacori diamond ring, style 2569pr6

In High School, Geometry may have meant calculating the angles of quadrilateral Triangles or knowing the theorum that equates the area of a Square as “a squared”.   However, as an adult, we’ve found that it’s much more fun to talk geometry of shapes and when you’re talking about Diamonds!

This diamond engagement ring exemplifies sparkle to the nth degree,  with the inclusion of three different diamond shapes:  Square (aka Princess cut diamond), Triangle (aka Trillion) and Round (aka Round Brilliant).

An engagement ring ideal for the modern beauty with a careful eye for design, this diamond ring features two trillion-cut diamonds (Triangles) framing a princess-cut (Square) center diamond.  Delicate filigree details and rows of round diamonds set along the channel of the band establish the Tacori look and style, all in perfect geometric symmetry.
