An oval diamond ring is a shape that can represent a range of meanings to the wearer and her future spouse. The egg shape is associated with fertility and eternal love given its lack of sharp corners.
An elongated shape also provides greater value than a different diamond shape with the same carat weight. This means they look bigger than a round brilliant diamond.
At Alicia J, our commitment to quality means that we make sure all our diamonds are approved by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). Founded in 1931, this is the most trusted diamond accreditation organisation in the world. By checking our diamonds against their 4Cs system, we ensure that you can have confidence in what you buy and choose the perfect engagement ring.
During the Art Deco movement that captured the 1920s and the 1930s, white gold became an increasingly sought-after option for engagement rings.
White gold has gained popularity as a long-lasting metal band with a silver colour. Gold is alloyed with nickel or palladium and given a rhodium-plating to create its finish.
There are also other metal bands including platinum, yellow gold, and rose gold. Talk to us about the best metal band for your complexion and how to choose a perfect oval diamond.
“For someone with no knowledge or confidence in buying an engagement ring, I was in great hands the whole way.”

We’ve answered some questions about our white gold oval engagement rings below:
Oval engagement rings are diamond rings with an elongated shape. They provide an eye-catching diamond shape that represents the fertility of an egg or the eternal cycle of neverending love. The modern oval shape with 58 facets was first introduced in 1957 by a Russian diamond cutter, Lazare Kaplan.
Oval diamond engagement rings are so popular due to the ability of their flattering shape and the fact that they make fingers appear more slender. They have all the beauty of a round diamond and are also cost-effective, looking larger than other diamond engagement rings of the same carat weight.
White gold will turn yellow after a year or two. This is to be expected because of the rhodium plating that gives the white silvery finish. It is simple to replate white gold bands and this can be done when you take the rings for their regular polishing.

What colour is a diamond? Many say they’re colourless, however, look closely and most contain subtle tints of yellows, soft pinks and rich browns. Truly colourless diamonds are known as white diamonds and are extremely rare and the most valuable. Diamond colour is graded from D to Z – D being the whitest, most colourless diamond and Z containing noticeable yellow, brown or pink tints. The letters D to Z represent a range of colour based on a combination of tone, lightness or darkness and saturation.
Cut
Diamond cut refers to the arrangement of a diamond’s facets. A diamond’s cut is often mistaken as meaning its shape (oval, pear, etc), but a diamond’s cut grade is actually about how well the facets interact with light.
Polish
Polish refers to the overall smoothness and condition of the diamond’s surface. It’s rare for a diamond to have a perfect polish. More often, they have tiny imperfections not visible to the naked eye.
Symmetry
Symmetry refers to how well-aligned the diamond's facets are. Symmetry, on the other hand, refers to the exactness of shape, overall outline, placement and alignment of individual facets.
The gradings provided by the GIA go from poor to excellent. If you select an SI clarity, we will provide Very Good cut, polish and symmetry. If you select a VS1 clarity, we will provide Excellent cut, polish and symmetry.
