Baguette Jewelry
Not to be confused with the French bread, baguette cut-diamonds have elongated, lustrous facets!
Most often a baguette is a rectangular or square-shaped diamond cut stone. If the baguette's longer sides taper making it narrower on one end, it is known as a Tapered Baguette.
Baguettes are often used to accentuate the center stone of an engagement ring! The number of facets found with a baguette range from 14 or more with 20 facets being the average or norm.
The Bauhaus period had great influence on design in jewelry and fashion. This movement earned its name and began from the Bauhaus modernist art school. Their approach to the manufacturing process, and the relationship between art, society, and technology, left a major footprint after World War II.
As 19th and early-20th-century artistic directions such as the Arts and Crafts movement developed in response to the function of this period, the baguette stone was conceptualized and created. During these Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods, baguette stones became the most popular, and remain one of the most popular cuts to this day.
