Asscher Cut Diamonds
The asscher cut diamond appears to have a "Hall of Mirrors" when you look into the window of the stone. This is achieved with a step cut design and clipped corners.
We love the unusual elegance of these diamonds. We enjoy sourcing an unusual cut for our clients as we continue to be amazed by the beauty each diamond beholds.
Asscher Cut Engagement Rings, Handmade in Edinburgh
The asscher cut is one of the most distinctive and storied cuts in the history of fine jewellery. Created in 1902 by the Royal Asscher Diamond Company of Amsterdam, it became the defining diamond of the Art Deco era — and its geometric precision and hypnotic stepped facets are as captivating today as they were over a century ago.
Square in outline with deeply cropped corners and a high crown, the asscher cut creates a mesmerising hall-of-mirrors effect that draws the eye deep into the stone. At Jewellery by Liam Ross, every asscher cut engagement ring is handcrafted in our Edinburgh workshop around stones hand-selected for their clarity and depth.
Why Choose an Asscher Cut Diamond?
- Art Deco heritage — one of the most historically significant cuts in fine jewellery, with over 120 years of provenance
- Hypnotic depth — the stepped facets create a unique hall-of-mirrors effect unlike any brilliant cut
- Geometric and architectural — the square silhouette with cropped corners is bold, structured, and unmistakable
- A connoisseur's choice — the asscher is chosen by those who appreciate craft, history, and understated confidence
Imagine Knowing the Jeweller Who Made Your Ring
Every ring we create is made by hand by Liam Ross and his team, and hallmarked at the Edinburgh Assay Office. That hallmark is more than a guarantee of precious metal quality — it's a mark of provenance, of place, and of the person who made it. Most people will never know who made their engagement ring. Our customers always will.
Bespoke or Ready to Wear
Choose from our existing collection or work with our jewellers to design something entirely your own. We hand-select every diamond, create your design in-house and can produce a 3D model so you can see your ring before it's made. Most bespoke rings are ready in 2–6 weeks.
