How the Straight Baguette Cut Came to Be
The Baguette Diamond Cut which was introduced to the world between 1920-1930 is the result of the evolution of the antique called known as the hogback, which held similar characteristics to the Baguette such as its slender appeal and the manipulator of the octahedron shape. The Baguette is one of the most popular diamond cuts today, though it’s hard to compete with its status upon release which thanks to its elongated triangular shape a freedom from the old fashioned cuts, and a celebration of the art deco and Nouveau period.
Why the Straight Baguette Cut Diamond is so alluring
The Straight Baguette Diamond Cut which is crafted from the slender bits of rough diamonds are the results of the cleaving of an octahedron two times. They do not conform to the same rules of cutting that other cuts must adhere to, but instead crafted using the step-cut method, and have only two rows of facets as well as unbeveled corners. They are both light-weight, and more easily cut compared to some of its counterparts, which translates as a win win for the manufacturer and the customer.
