Two words: Frank Darling.

We love the antique charm of a rose cut diamond, and we'd be thrilled to design a custom piece around one for you. When you book a showroom appointment, highlight for us that you'd prefer a rose cut diamond, and our sourcers can create your custom stone flight based on your preferences. Then, we'll build your dream ring around your favorite.

We find that generally, rose cut diamonds are actually less expensive than, say, a round brilliant diamond. That said, you'll want to opt for a high clarity grade if you want that inclusion-free, glassy look, as the facets are large and leave nothing to hide inside the diamond. What offsets this consideration is that rose cut diamonds are very shallow, so you can achieve the size of diamond you want with a lower carat grade.

A diamond's four Cs (cut, color, clarity, and carat weight) all influence the price of a diamond, as does an individual retailer’s pricing strategies. The world moves fast, so trends in diamonds and fine jewelry are always changing, and the market fluctuates according to supply and demand. If you love an pear shaped diamond, we at Frank Darling can absolutely find you a stone worthy of a “Yes!"

Short answer? Yes. Rose cut diamonds have fewer and chunkier facets than, say, a round brilliant or radiant cut. They don't provide a disco ball of rainbow fire. But if you're looking for antique charm, this vintage cut and its subtle light play is right up your alley.

We know that a rose cut diamond doesn't suit most modern engagement ring wearers' tastes. But we, as jewelry experts, adore them and their history, and you might, too, so we always have them in our assortment for your perusal.

You know what they say, ""If you're thinking it, you probably should."" Well, they may not actually say that, but if you're already considering a rose cut engagement ring, then you should absolutely get one. Rose cut diamonds are for the romantics—the dreamers who love timeless charm and appreciate the understated elegance of a vintage design. With their soft shimmer, rose cuts don’t scream “look at me!” like their modern counterparts; instead, they whisper a story of romance, history, and individuality.

Perfect for those who value uniqueness, these diamonds are a call back to a simpler era, beautifully catching light in the most intimate way—particularly in candlelight, where they truly shine. Plus, they’re often more budget-friendly since they retain more size and weight while requiring fewer facets.

So, if classic elegance and charm make your heart flutter, a rose cut diamond might just be *the one*. Romantic and timeless? Yes, please.

Because rose cut diamonds are very shallow, they aren’t compatible with every single setting.

We recommend a bezel setting because the rose cut diamond’s delicate edges. With that, we love a high grade karat yellow gold (18k) with a rose cut diamond, with custom engraving, filigree and milgrain details. An antique, fantasy novel-esque setting is perfect for the enchanting whimsy of a rose cut diamond. But truly, if you love a rose cut diamond, you can go any which way. You can go for a minimalist rose cut engagement ring, or you can pair it with pavé or even a halo. The world is your oyster, darling.
