An Asscher cut diamond engagement ring, although not a traditional choice, can produce a dramatic effect.
The Asscher cut has gained popularity only recently, since square shapes got in the top of consumer preferences. It’s history goes back to the early 20th century when it was invented by the Asscher brothers of Holland. It was a modification of the most popular cut of the previous century — the cushion cut.
In 1902, Abraham Asscher invented a cut which was square to rectangular with a flat table (top surface), many small step cuts along the top area and larger and longer facets underneath the diamond. This cut was updated and reintroduced by Edward and Joop Asscher as the Royal Asscher Cut, a version with more facets for added brightness.
The beauty of the Asscher cut lies in the fact that it stresses upon the beauty of the diamond and draws the eye into the depths of the gem.
We consider this diamond shape to be one of the coolest available. We sell quite a few because they are typically not available in most Irish jewellers.
