Discover the Beauty of Oval Diamonds in Cape Town
At Prins & Prins, we believe that every diamond tells a story as unique as the person who wears it. Oval diamonds, with their elongated symmetry and radiant brilliance, offer a timeless yet distinctive appeal. This elegant shape combines the fire of a round brilliant cut with a slender silhouette that flatters the finger and creates an illusion of greater size. Whether you’re designing a custom engagement ring or investing in loose diamonds in Cape Town, the oval cut remains a sought-after choice for those who value grace and individuality.
A Cut Above – The Appeal of Oval Diamonds
Oval diamonds are ideal for the discerning buyer looking for a diamond that bridges classic beauty and modern sophistication. Their elongated form enhances finger length and makes the stone appear larger than other shapes of the same carat weight. This makes oval diamonds not only visually striking but also an excellent value in terms of presence and proportion. At Prins & Prins, we offer a curated collection of loose oval diamonds in Cape Town, each one carefully graded and certified for exceptional quality and brilliance.

The 4Cs and Why They Matter with Oval Diamonds
As with all diamonds, oval diamonds are evaluated using the 4Cs: Carat, Colour, Clarity, and Cut. However, the cut of an oval diamond plays a particularly important role, as it influences light performance and can affect the appearance of the “bow-tie” effect—a dark area across the centre of the stone. A well-cut oval diamond will have minimal bow-tie and exceptional sparkle. Our gemologists work closely with clients to ensure that each diamond meets the highest standards, offering both brilliance and long-term value.
