Designed in Melbourne · Made for You
A marquise engagement ring is set with a long, boat-shaped diamond with a point at each end. It's the most elongated of the classic shapes, so it looks larger than a round of the same carat and makes the finger look long and slim. Savoir-Faire Jewellery makes every marquise ring to order in Melbourne with a certified lab-grown diamond.
Prices include a lab-grown diamond from 2ct. Your final price varies with the diamond you choose.

Marquise Solitaire with Marquise and Round Accent Band
Buying guide
Two points to protect, two halves to match: the marquise asks a little more of its setting, and gives the most drama of any shape in return.
A marquise is a brilliant cut, so it sparkles like a round, drawn out into a long oval with a point at both ends. It has the longest outline of the classic shapes, which is why it looks so large for its carat weight and stretches the finger more than any other.
Our marquise designs include:
A marquise has two points, and points are where diamonds chip. Protect both:
Avoid any setting that leaves a point bare. It may look delicate, but a bare point takes every knock.
Marquise diamonds vary more in length than any other shape. Most sit between about 1.75 and 2.25 in length-to-width:
| Ratio | Look |
|---|---|
| 1.75-1.90 | Fuller, softer |
| 1.90-2.10 | The classic marquise |
| 2.15 and above | Very long and slim |
Symmetry matters even more than ratio. The two halves should mirror each other exactly, with the points lined up along the centre. Any difference is easy to see on the hand, so look at the actual diamond on video before you choose. Most marquise diamonds show some bow-tie, a darker band across the middle; a faint one is normal.
Every setting we make can take a marquise. The ones that suit it best:
| Marquise | Pear | Oval | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shape | Pointed both ends | One point | Rounded both ends |
| Points to protect | Two | One | None |
| On the finger | Lengthens the most | Lengthens | Lengthens |
| Feel | Dramatic, vintage | Distinctive | Soft, versatile |
Our verdict: choose a marquise if you want the most length and presence for your budget, and choose its setting with the points in mind. See pear engagement rings and oval engagement rings.
The price on each design here includes a certified lab-grown diamond at the carat weight selected above the grid, so change the carat to see real prices. Rounds carry the highest price per carat, so a marquise of the same weight costs less, and looks considerably larger. To stretch the budget further, choose 14ct instead of 18ct and put the saving into the diamond.
Every ring is made to order in about three weeks from payment. Book a free consultation, in person or by video, and we'll show you marquise diamonds side by side.
Straight answers from our Melbourne jewellers.
Yes. A marquise has the longest outline of the classic shapes, so it looks larger than a round diamond of the same carat and makes the finger look long and slim.
The two points are the most vulnerable parts. A V-shaped claw over each point, or a bezel around the whole stone, protects them.
Usually, carat for carat. Round diamonds carry the highest price per carat, because more of the rough crystal is cut away to make them.

“Conor was an absolute pleasure to deal with.He has tremendous attention to detail. He crafted a 1.5 carat diamond in 18ct gold solitaire, which I absolutely love. He spent a lot of time with me ensuring that he understood exactly what I wanted. I would absolutely recommend his business and I will definately be purchasing from him again. He is a testament to when you love what you do,and you treat people well, success is a given.”
