The oval cut features a combined round brilliant and pear-shaped or marquise cut. It is a more modern look than the standard round brilliant cut but with the same amount of fire and brilliance. Because of their elongate shapes, oval cuts also make the finger look longer and more slender. A length-to-width ratio of 1.35 – 1.50 is considered a classic oval cut, but the ratios can vary. Oval-cut gems also appear to be larger than round-cut gemstones of the same carat weight.
