Baguette Diamonds

The earliest reference to a baguette cut diamond originates from the hogback cut, an “elongated table cut” used as early as the 16th century. This diamond cut has been known as a “baton”, a “diamant baton” and even as a “stick” brilliant. The first proper baguette cut diamond appeared around 1909 and at that time still had rounded corners. The cut quickly evolved around the 1920’s to 1930’s into the geometric shape with 90-degree corners that we know today.


Trilliant Diamonds

Triangle, Trilliant and Trillion are all permutations of a name applied to a triangular brilliant cut diamond. The Trilliant and Trillion cut was introduced by the Asscher brothers in Amsterdam and was later trademarked by the Henry Meyer Diamond Company of New York in 1962. Now that the patent has expired, the term “Trilliant Cut” is used to refer to all triangular shaped gems, even step cut and cabochon stones.
