There are many tales of the impact of royalty on the jewelry world, but one of my favorites concerns the creation of the marquise cut. Renowned for its long and narrow pointed shape, this historic cut was named by 18th-century French King Louis XV.
Old King Lou commissioned the marquise cut to resemble the lips of his mistress, Marquise of Pompadour. The king believed her lips to be “perfectly shaped,” and a new jewelry cut was born. Here we’ve taken a king’s prerogative and placed 44 marquise-cut gems and placed them in our Marquise Sovereign Bracelet.
We’ve crafted this immaculate piece of jewelry from DiamondAura®, our signature lab-created stone. This sparkling marvel rivals even the finest diamonds (D Flawless) with its transparent color and clarity, and both are so hard they can cut glass.
Finished in rhodium, the Marquise Sovereign Bracelet is sure to charm the queen in your life.
