What is an Asscher cut diamond?


The Asscher Cut is usually described as a square emerald cut. The origin of the Asscher cut pre-dates the 20th Century, and Old Asschers are found in many antique and estate jewellery pieces. It is said that a well-cut Asscher will deliver more brilliance than modern Diamond cuts. This information comes from our popular diamond shapes guide available in the knowledge section of our website. 

Suggested ring styles for the Asscher cut.


The Asscher diamond cut suits simple ring styles. For example, Art Deco rings suit this straightforward, incandescent diamond shape. Unlike the brilliant cut, the Asscher features a more subtle arrangement of squared facets with more fire than scintillation. 

From VS1 to VVS1 - best diamond clarities for the Asscher cut


Many buyers fail to understand the best clarity grade for an Asscher cut. Small inclusions appear more visible to the naked eye compared to brilliant cuts. For this reason, we recommend a good clarity grade. For example, VVS1, VVS2, VS1 or VS2 clarity. Most diamond cutters favour better quality rough diamonds when cutting this shape. Just like the Emerald cut, Asscher cut diamonds are less forgiving when it comes to noticeable inclusions.
