The Timeless Allure of Marquise Pendants
Marquise Pendants bring a unique sophistication to fine jewelry. With their pointed ends and elongated shape, marquise-cut stones create a dramatic yet delicate look that naturally enhances the neckline. This cut, often associated with royalty and classic European design, offers more surface area than most other cuts of the same carat weight—translating to more visual impact and sparkle.
From minimalist solitaires to ornate, multi-stone creations, marquise pendants provide balance, brilliance, and refined charm.
Understanding the Marquise Cut: A Regal Classic
The marquise cut dates back to 18th-century France, where King Louis XV commissioned a diamond cut to mimic the lips of his beloved, the Marquise de Pompadour. The resulting shape—narrow in the middle and pointed at both ends—conveyed elegance and sensuality. Today, that same shape is a favorite among those who love vintage glamor with modern sophistication.
Marquise Pendants continue to be a top choice for those looking for:
- Elongated elegance that flatters the neckline
- A vintage aesthetic with a contemporary twist
- A unique shape that stands apart from common cuts like round or princess
- Enhanced brilliance and larger visual appearance for its carat size
