A Baguette Engagement Ring is best known for its bold rectangular shape and its sleek and elegant appearance. While baguettes are often accents, that certainly doesn’t mean they can’t be centerstones. Introduced during the roaring ‘20s Art Deco movement, the baguette shape has a vintage nostalgia to it. This particular stone cut was named after a French baguette, as they tend to be longer and skinnier than emerald cuts with distinctive cut corners.
