About Heart Cut Diamond Rings
The heart shaped diamond is the ultimate symbol of love, making it a meaningful choice for engagement rings. This romantic cut requires exceptional craftsmanship to achieve perfect symmetry between the two lobes and a well-defined cleft at the top.
Our heart shaped lab grown diamonds are hand-selected for excellent symmetry and proportions. We choose stones with length-to-width ratios between 0.90 and 1.10, ensuring the heart shape is immediately recognizable and beautifully balanced.
Heart diamonds truly shine in larger carat weights (0.75ct and above), where the shape is most visible. Our collection features solitaire and halo settings designed to showcase this romantic shape, plus Toi Et Moi designs perfect for couples. All rings are crafted in 14K gold, 18K gold, or platinum — also explore our Holiday Jewelry Gifts collection.
Frequently Asked Questions
What carat weight is best for a heart shaped diamond?
We recommend 0.75 carats or larger to ensure the heart shape is clearly visible. For other distinctive fancy shapes that hold their character at smaller sizes, explore our pear cut or oval cut rings.
How important is symmetry in a heart shaped diamond?
Symmetry is critical for a heart cut — both lobes must match perfectly and the cleft should be clearly defined. All our hearts meet strict IGI/GIA symmetry standards, and you'll find the most exceptional stones in our Premium Lab Grown Diamond Rings collection.
What settings work best for heart shaped diamonds?
Five-prong settings (with one prong at the cleft) protect the diamond best, while halo and bezel set designs add extra security and sparkle. Compare with our marquise cut rings for another romantic option.
