Most Popular Shape of Gemstone


The shape of a gemstone depends entirely upon what appeals to you and what you perceive as aesthetic and beautiful. There are a wide variety of shapes in gemstones that are magnificently cut to add to its charm. Apart from a personal liking, some shapes look more becoming in certain jewelry settings than others. However, in spite of an array of shapes available these days, round is by far the most popular shape. The evenly proportionate facets and balanced look maximizes the color, beauty and allure of the stone. An all time classic that will forever remain fashionable.

Rounds are my favorite too but trillions are unusual and more suited to contemporary jewelry.
