Oval, Pear, & Marquise Cut Engagement Rings
Elegant, unusual and effortlessly romantic: our collection of marquise, pear-shaped, and oval diamond engagement rings offers something a little different from the classic round cut diamond rings. Think elongated silhouettes that flatter the finger and sparkle from every angle. Whether you’re drawn to minimalist designs or vintage-style settings in gold or platinum, each of our pre-loved pieces has been inspected by at least one qualified gemmologist. You’ll receive a certificate of authenticity when you bring it home, plus an independent valuation document for higher-value pieces. With new arrivals each week, there’s always a fresh beauty waiting to be discovered.

How to Choose from Our Engagement Ring Collection?
Choosing the perfect forever ring - especially if it's something a little different like an oval engagement ring or an elegant marquise cut engagement ring, rather than the usual round solitaire - is all about striking the right balance between beauty, practicality, and personal style. And we’re here to make that journey easier.
Budget: All of our pre-owned rings offer outstanding value compared to buying new. With a wide range of price points, it’s easy to discover a beautiful piece that suits your budget without compromising on style or substance
Diamond quality: If diamond quality is your top priority, pay close attention to clarity, colour and carat weight (note that our higher-value pieces will come with a full valuation document detailing these key elements). Both oval and marquise cuts tend to make the stones appear bigger than they are, with marquise diamonds being the most impressive. The elongated shape creates the illusion of size. In addition, because both of these shapes for natural diamonds are brilliant cut, they shine spectacularly. For more guidance, read our dedicated blog on diamond quality.
Setting and size: For everyday wear, which is essential for an engagement ring, you may prefer a low-profile setting or a slightly smaller stone for added comfort and ease. The elongated shape of pear, marquise, and oval cut diamonds means they can often sit lower on the finger, making them surprisingly practical. This is especially important when choosing an engagement ring that you’ll have on your hand most or all of the time.

FAQs
Oval, pear, and marquise cut diamonds are loved not just for their elegance, but also for their clever proportions. Their elongated shapes create the illusion of a larger stone, thanks to a greater table spread. This means they have more visible diamond surface than a round cut diamond of the same carat weight. If you’re considering an oval, pear cut, or marquise diamond engagement ring, these shapes are ideal for maximising presence without increasing size or cost.
The easiest way to find out your ring size is to buy an inexpensive ring sizer online or visit a trusted local jeweller who can measure your wedding finger (traditionally in the West this is the 4th finger on the left hand). Remember that extreme weather/temperatures can affect how your ring fits. Cold weather can make fingers shrink, hot weather can make them swell, so bear this in mind when you’re getting fitted.
Generally, no. However, if you have a design in mind or an alteration you’d like to an existing ring, it’s always worth getting in touch with us at info@charlesfish.co.uk and we’ll do our best to help.
Yes we do! Most rings can be resized on request, so don’t panic if it’s not a perfect fit. The only exception is certain eternity rings, styles with diamonds set all the way around or hollow rings: resizing those can be trickier, so it’s worth double-checking before you buy. We include sizes in all our ring product information and unless we’re sure a ring can’t be made bigger or smaller, we will advise asking about adjustment options available. If you’re unsure, get in touch with us via phone (020 85094884) or email with details of the ring you like and we can advise you further.
