Oval Loose Diamonds

Loose Diamonds 
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.
