Baguette cut (not the bread)

Baguette cut stones are a classic and elegant choice in the world of gemstone cutting. These rectangular step-cut stones are characterized by their long and narrow shape, resembling a small baguette loaf of bread— hence the name “baguette.” Typically used as side or accent stones, modern trends have shifted toward placing them as the center stone. Here I’m setting a stunning blue sapphire baguette into a yellow gold ring.
