Every oval cut diamond naturally reflects a degree of shadow across its central facets due to how light enters its elongated geometry—this is commonly known as the bow-tie effect. In poorly cut stones, this manifests as a distracting dark band that obstructs light return.
In our Surat diamond cutting atelier, we employ proprietary 3D Sarine ray-tracing algorithms and optimized pavilion depth angles (58% to 62.8%). By calibrating facet symmetry with mathematical precision, our master cutters disperse light evenly across the entire table, reducing the bow-tie to a subtle, lively scintillation pattern that enhances brilliance rather than detracting from it.

The oval lab grown diamond has become the #1 engagement ring choice among modern brides. Our Surat jewelers handcraft custom mountings tailored to your exact diamond dimensions in Solid Platinum 950, 14K/18K Yellow Gold, White Gold, and Rose Gold.
The bowtie effect is a dark shadow across the center width of an oval diamond shaped like a necktie. This optical phenomenon occurs because elongated fancy shapes have facets of varying lengths—light entering the center encounters steep pavilion angles that cast the viewer's head and camera shadow directly back into the stone.
While every oval diamond has some subtle facet shadow, inferior commercial stones have a lifeless, dark black void in the middle. At New Origin Diamonds in Surat, our master diamond cutters apply proprietary modified pavilion facet angles that eliminate the dead zone and convert the center into a dazzling river of white brilliance and colored fire.
Every oval diamond is individually inspected under high-intensity 360° light box video. We reject any stone exhibiting a heavy or distracting black bowtie, ensuring only stones with bright, dynamic light return reach our clients.

Because oval diamonds lack sharp corners like princess or marquise cuts, they are naturally durable and chip-resistant. However, choosing the right prong architecture is crucial for both security and aesthetic balance:
Places prongs at the diagonal curves, allowing maximum light entry from the sides for optimum brilliance. Best for 1.00ct to 2.00ct stones.
Adds two additional prongs at the top and bottom lobes. Highly recommended for active lifestyles and diamonds 2.50 carats and larger.
Places prongs directly at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock. Emphasizes the symmetry and length of the oval for a sleek, modern architectural aesthetic.
Whether you dream of a delicate 1.6mm hidden halo pave band, a three-stone oval ring flanked by half-moons, or a bezel solitaire, our Surat master craftsmen cast and hand-finish every setting in 950 Platinum, 18K, or 14K Gold.
