Understanding the Asscher Cut

The Assher Cut is characterized by its distinctive step-cut facets and cropped corners. It exudes an enchanting blend of vintage charm and modern sophistication. The look is very Art Dec which is an era known for its love of straight lines and repeating patterns. 


This cut was developed in the early 20th century to showcase a mesmerizing interplay of light and shadow. This cut is ideal for those who appreciate timeless yet unconventional elegance. 

The Unique Features and Appeal of Asscher Cut Diamonds

Asscher cut diamonds are celebrated for their mesmerizing optical effects. They have a square shape and step-cut facets. These diamonds emit a brilliance that's utterly captivating. 


The cropped corners enhance the distinctiveness. Creating a remarkable balance between geometric precision and artistic charm. 


If you're intrigued by the allure of Asscher diamonds, you're not alone. Their vintage vibe and contemporary flair have captured the hearts of diamond enthusiasts worldwide.

What to Look For When Buying Asscher Diamonds

Several key factors come into play when embarking on the journey to find your perfect Asscher diamond. 


The 4Cs – Cut, Clarity, Color, and Carat – are essential in determining the overall quality and value of the diamond. The cut, in particular, is paramount for Asscher diamonds, as it affects their brilliance and reflective qualities. 

  • Cut. The cut defines how light interacts with the diamond. For Asscher diamonds, prioritize a high-quality cut to maximize their brilliance.
  • Clarity. Assess the diamond's clarity using the GIA clarity scale. Inclusions are more visible in step-cut diamonds like Asschers. It's best to consider as high of a clarity grade that suits your budget. 
  • Color.  Asscher diamonds showcase color differently due to their step-cut facets. Choose a color grade that aligns with your desired appearance.
  • Carat. Select the carat weight based on your style and budget. Remember that the Asscher cut's proportions can make the diamond appear smaller than other cuts of the same carat weight.

The Ethical Choice: Recycled Diamonds

Asscher Diamonds gives you a sustainable choice in a world that cares more about ethics.  Choosing recycled Asscher diamonds goes beyond their physical beauty. 

These stones have a story to tell – one that encompasses:

  • Responsible Sourcing

    Jewelry Care

    Diamonds, sapphires and gold are the traditional materials to wear as engagement or wedding jewelry because they are the most durable. Only these three materials are our recommendation for use as an engagement ring.

    Sunstones, emeralds, opals and inlay stones are beautiful accents, but should not be considered up for every day, forever wear in an engagement ring stack.  Forever is a long time, so choose wisely when considering a ring to be the everyday representation of your love. It’s a big decision to represent your love with fine jewelry, consider a versatile set that can we worn in all the different times and events in your life.

    All jewelry requires care and attention, so please realize just because a ring is chosen from our website and presented as a wedding ring, does not mean it's appropriate for everyday wear. The materials are very important. All jewelry should be taken off before bathing, swimming, yoga, applying lotions, working out, doing the dishes, etc.

    We recommend a simple pure gold band as the everyday forever wedding ring. Our inlay jewelry can be worn as the occasion permits. More information is explained in our FAQ PAGE.
