This celebrity style is a fresh take on an engagement ring, without going too far off the path. Some will call this east-west set diamond an oval, some will call it an elongated oval, and some will even call it a “moval.” Moval is the portmanteau of marquise and oval, having features of both. Terms like elongated oval and/or moval are somewhat controversial in the jewelry community, but as descriptors they fit the bill.
PriceScope Educational Advisor, John Pollard had this to say: “One of the main concerns with marquise and ovals is the frequent presence of a “bow-tie”, which is a long band of darkness across the stone which appears when viewed closely. The faceting design used for this “moval” minimizes the bow-tiw effect and exaggerates transparency. It’s a unique look.”
This ring, no matter what you call the cut, is stunning. It’s not a look that you see every day, and the designers at Mociun did a spectacular job with it!
