How the shape helps
At 13 mm long and 8 mm wide, this stone has a slim rectangle outline. On the finger, it makes the hand look longer and neater.
The step facets show the deep orange in calm, wide flashes.
Matching it with metal
Yellow gold blends with the warm orange for a rich, classic look. Silver gives a more relaxed, everyday style, often loved for men's rings.
Corner prongs or a slim bezel protect the cut corners from chips.
