Description

King Louis XV ordered royal jewellers to cut diamonds to resemble the lips of his lover.

STORY

The marquise cut’s origin dates back to the 18th century when King Louis XV of France (1710-1774) commissioned a jeweler to design a cut shape that resembled the lips of his mistress, Jean Antoinette Poisson, the Marchioness Madame de Pompadour.

Over time, the marquise cut developed into the distinctive shape known today. The name “marquise” refers to a hereditary rank above a count but below a duke and comes from the fact that courtiers wore marquise cut diamonds in order to show off their rank.
