Oval Lab-Grown Diamonds
The oval is a modified brilliant that stretches the round's faceting along one axis. The result sparkles like a round, elongates the finger, and looks noticeably larger than a round of the same weight because more of its surface faces upward.
Look closely at the bow-tie — the shadow across the centre that every elongated brilliant carries. A well-cut oval keeps it faint; length-to-width around 1.35 to 1.50 is the usual sweet spot. Lab-grown diamonds are chemically, physically and optically identical to mined stones, certified to the same standards and typically 60-80% less per carat. Our lab-grown diamond guide covers the detail. Compare it with every other outline in our diamond shapes guide, and get to grips with what actually drives price in our diamond 4Cs guide. Each stone is independently graded and openly priced, ready to set into one of our settings or a piece designed from scratch with you.
