The oval loose diamond is the most flattering shape for short fingers or hands, and is particularly fetching as a centerpiece for other stones. It has 56 facets, and can be just as brilliant as a round loose diamond if you use a high-quality, colorless stone. Loose ovals tend to show Impurities and inclusions. Also look for a length-width ratio of 1.5 to 1, to avoid the bow-tie effect, a dark area caused by poorly cut angles.
