Alternative cuts are everything beyond the familiar silhouettes — the pear's teardrop taper, the marquise's pointed ellipse, the princess's crisp square, the radiant's cropped-corner glitter, the asscher's octagonal hall of mirrors, the heart's literal romance. The diamond trade calls these fancy shapes; whatever the label, each carries its own optics and its own argument. Pears and marquises elongate the finger dramatically and wear large for their weight, princesses and radiants deliver brilliant-cut fire in angular geometry, asschers bring Deco architecture. What they share is distinctiveness — an alternative cut is recognized from across the table, which is often exactly the point.
Luvari's alternative cut engagement rings are offered in yellow gold, white gold, rose gold, and platinum, with center stones spanning lab grown diamonds, natural diamonds, moissanite, and colored gemstones, across every setting style we make. Details can be tailored through our semi-custom process. Alternative cuts suit the buyer who knew the classic shapes were fine — and kept looking anyway.

Frequently Asked Questions About Alternative Cut Engagement Rings
Any center stone silhouette beyond round, oval, cushion, and emerald cut — including pear, marquise, princess, radiant, asscher, and heart shapes. The diamond trade traditionally calls these "fancy shapes," since every non-round cut is technically fancy. Each has its own faceting, optics, and character, unified mainly by their willingness to be noticed.
Generally yes, per carat — round brilliants command a premium because cutting them wastes the most rough and demand for them runs highest. Alternative cuts typically cost less for equal weight, and elongated ones like pear and marquise also wear visually larger. The practical result: the distinctive-looking shapes are frequently the better value.
The points are the one vulnerability — a pear's tip or a marquise's two ends concentrate stress and can chip if struck directly, which is why they are properly set with protective V-shaped prongs cradling each point. So guarded, they wear as confidently as any shape. It is a setting requirement, not a reason to pass.
Luvari offers alternative cut engagement rings in 14k and 18k yellow gold, white gold, and rose gold, as well as platinum, across every setting style we make — solitaire through unique designs — with center stones spanning lab grown diamonds, natural diamonds, moissanite, and colored gemstones. Details, including shape-specific settings, are tailored through the semi-custom process.
Start with what you want the shape to do. Pears and marquises elongate the finger and maximize face-up size; princesses and radiants deliver full brilliant sparkle in modern, angular lines; asschers offer vintage architecture with hypnotic depth; hearts make the sentiment literal. Then look at each on an actual hand — alternative cuts are personalities, and chemistry decides.
