The Kaelis Heart Shaped Diamond Solitaire Ring

Romantic Heart Cut Diamond Ring with Classic Solitaire Setting

The Kaelis is for people who want a heart diamond and aren't worried about being subtle about it. Heart cuts are probably the most divisive diamond shape - you either think they're romantic and sweet, or you think they're cheesy and over the top. There's not much middle ground.

Heart shapes are technically modified brilliant cuts, so they can be quite sparkly when cut well. But the shape is so distinctive that the sparkle almost becomes secondary. People notice the heart first, everything else second. The symmetry has to be really good or the whole thing looks lopsided.

The setting here is pretty straightforward - three prongs total, with one at the cleft and two at the bottom curves. Hearts don't need as much protection as some cuts because there aren't super sharp points like marquise or pear shapes. The main concern is making sure that cleft doesn't chip, but it's not as vulnerable as pointed ends.

Heart diamonds tend to look bigger than their actual carat weight, which is nice if you're trying to maximize visual impact. The width makes them appear substantial even in smaller sizes. Though honestly, hearts probably work better in larger sizes where the proportions are easier to read.

This isn't a subtle choice. If you want people to notice your ring and immediately understand it's about love and romance, hearts do that job. Some people find that appealing, others find it too obvious. Depends how you feel about wearing symbolism that literally.

Quality matters a lot with hearts because the shape is so recognizable that flaws are obvious. We look for good symmetry and clean cleft definition because wonky hearts just look wrong.
