Like its namesake, the baguette cut is long and rectangular, narrow and usually accompanies a main course. In this ridiculous comparison, the main course is, of course, a larger gemstone. Like the emerald and Asscher cut, the baguette cut is a rectangular-shaped, step-cut diamond with straight or tapered edges. It is one of the most popular cuts for diamond engagement rings.
Emerald-cut and baguette-cut diamonds are sometimes confused, but they are quite different. Emerald-cut diamonds are cut with 50-58 facets, whereas baguette diamonds are cut with 14 facets. Because of its thin shape and low facet count, the baguette-cut diamond usually flanks a center diamond, but its appealing simplicity and symmetry can also be featured as the centerpiece.
