Celebrity Engagement Ring Style: Asscher Cut
Tuesday June 2, 2009 3:26 PM
What celebrity engagement ring style suits you best? If you are looking for a sophisticated cut that is more unique than a solitaire diamond, the Asscher cut engagement ring may be the right ring for you. Asscher diamonds are cut in several parallel patterns to create a brilliant reflection. They are also notable for their distinctive octagonal shape and trimmed corners. Asschers became popular during the 1920s, and antique Art Deco versions can still be found.
Asscher cut diamonds are for sophisticated trend-setters who have an edge. “Sex and The City” fans may remember that Aidan proposed to Carrie with a solitaire Asscher cut engagement ring. This ring style is also popular among rocker wives. Gwyneth Paltrow wears an Asscher diamond with a micro pave frame and double band from her husband Chris Martin, Pete Wentz spent $150,000 on a four-carat Asscher for Ashlee Simpson, and Kate Hudson wore a five-carat brilliant Asscher from her ex-husband Chris Robinson.
