Over 25% Of People Prefer This Timeless Diamond Shape

Every type of diamond cut is gorgeous in their own way, but when it comes time to crown the most popular, there can only be one winner. According to The List’s survey, the top voted shape is the classic round diamond, with 25.81% of the vote. Padis Gems reported that,”Round diamonds account for over two-thirds of diamonds sold.” Emerald cut diamonds came close with 24.91% of the vote, a large, rectangular cut diamond with rounded edges.

About 16.6% of people preferred square shaped princess cut diamonds, while another 16.13% preferred oval shaped diamonds. According to Brides, oval shaped diamonds are wildly popular amongst celebrities — Simone Biles, Ariana Grande, and Kourtney Kardashian have all been spotted rocking beautiful oval-shaped engagement rings.

Pear shaped diamonds were 8.96% of people’s favorite cut, a unique style that resembles the world’s sparkliest teardrop. Per Padis Gems, pear diamonds are difficult to cut, so they are not easy to come by and can be very expensive. Only 7.53% of people prefer cushion diamonds, a vintage rounded cut that got its namesake because of its resemblance to a pillow (via The Diamond Pro).

While all these styles of diamonds can be worn a ton of different ways, the gems are most commonly associated with engagement rings. If you’ve met the one you want to spend your life with, dreaming about the perfect round cut diamond ring might be just around the corner.
