It isn&#8217;t quite an oval, and it isn&#8217;t quite a marquise. Instead, it combines characteristics of both, creating a distinctive silhouette that has become increasingly popular among diamond enthusiasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A moval features the elongated body of an oval with the tapered ends of a marquise. It occupies a unique space in the world of fancy-shaped diamonds, offering the elegance of an oval with added definition and drama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Defines a Moval?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The difference between an oval and a moval comes down to geometry. A traditional oval diamond typically has a length-to-width ratio (LWR) of up to about 1.70. At that proportion, the shape appears soft, balanced, and symmetrical. Once the ratio exceeds approximately 1.70, the ends begin to narrow, creating a silhouette that resembles a softer marquise. This distinction is important because it gives the moval a measurable definition rather than making it simply a matter of appearance or personal interpretation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brilliant vs. Old Mine Movals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Movals are available in two primary cutting styles, each with a very different look and feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brilliant Moval<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The brilliant moval is the version most people encounter first. It is designed to maximize light return, producing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Strong sparkle<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>High brilliance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Crisp facet reflections<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A modern appearance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s bright and looks beautiful in photographs and attracts attention from every angle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7899-2.jpeg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"713\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7899-2-713x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5137\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7899-2-713x1024.jpeg 713w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7899-2-209x300.jpeg 209w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7899-2-768x1103.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7899-2-1070x1536.jpeg 1070w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7899-2-1170x1680.jpeg 1170w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7899-2-585x840.jpeg 585w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7899-2.jpeg 1206w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 713px) 100vw, 713px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Screenshot<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Old Mine (Antique) Moval<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The old mine moval, sometimes called an antique moval, offers a completely different aesthetic. Other characteristics include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Larger, chunkier facets<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Softer flashes of light<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Greater depth and character<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A vintage-inspired appearance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rather than emphasizing sparkle alone, antique movals are valued for their warmth, personality, and old-world charm. If the brilliant moval is designed to stand out across a room, the old mine moval invites a closer look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7905-2.jpeg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"613\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7905-2-613x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5136\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7905-2-613x1024.jpeg 613w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7905-2-180x300.jpeg 180w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7905-2-768x1283.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7905-2-920x1536.jpeg 920w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7905-2-1170x1954.jpeg 1170w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7905-2-585x977.jpeg 585w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7905-2.jpeg 1206w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 613px) 100vw, 613px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Screenshot<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Watch For: The Bow Tie Effect<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like many elongated fancy shapes, movals can display a bow tie. A bow tie appears as a dark shadow across the center of the diamond and results from the way light travels through the stone. While some bow ties are minimal, others can be quite noticeable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>When evaluating a moval:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Review videos, not just photos<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Examine the stone under movement<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Look for even light performance across the center<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Work with a jeweler who can inspect stones individually<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7900.jpeg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"668\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7900-668x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5139\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7900-668x1024.jpeg 668w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7900-196x300.jpeg 196w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7900-768x1178.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7900-1001x1536.jpeg 1001w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7900-1170x1795.jpeg 1170w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7900-585x897.jpeg 585w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7900.jpeg 1206w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 668px) 100vw, 668px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Screenshot<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Compass Prongs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Compass-set prongs are especially well-suited to the moval shape. Benefits include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Protection for the tapered ends<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A clean, balanced appearance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Minimal interruption of the diamond&#8217;s outline<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Open Bridge Solitaire<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An open bridge solitaire is another excellent option. This design:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Allows more light to enter the stone<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reduces visual bulk beneath the diamond<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Highlights the moval&#8217;s elongated proportions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Collectors Appreciate the Moval<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To someone unfamiliar with diamond proportions, a 1.78 LWR moval may simply look like a long oval. To someone who understands diamond geometry, it represents something much more specific. Finding a truly exceptional moval often means locating a stone with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The right elongated proportions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Moderate or no bow tie<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Strong light performance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A desirable cut style<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A visible culet, in antique examples<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Shape That Stands Apart<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the moval&#8217;s greatest strengths is its subtle uniqueness. It offers the finger-flattering elongation that makes oval diamonds so popular while introducing the architectural definition of a marquise. The tapered ends add sophistication and distinction without sacrificing the softness that many buyers love about oval shapes. The result is a diamond that feels refined, elegant, and just a little unexpected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Examples From Our Site:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7898.jpeg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"589\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"5140\" src=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7898-589x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5140\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7898-589x1024.jpeg 589w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7898-172x300.jpeg 172w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7898-768x1336.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7898-883x1536.jpeg 883w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7898-1177x2048.jpeg 1177w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7898-1170x2035.jpeg 1170w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7898-585x1018.jpeg 585w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7898.jpeg 1206w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 589px) 100vw, 589px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Diamond Search Ovals<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7902.jpeg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"638\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"5141\" src=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7902-638x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5141\" srcset=\"https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7902-638x1024.jpeg 638w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7902-187x300.jpeg 187w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7902-768x1233.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7902-957x1536.jpeg 957w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7902-1170x1878.jpeg 1170w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7902-585x939.jpeg 585w, https:\/\/adiamor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_7902.jpeg 1206w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 638px) 100vw, 638px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently Asked Questions:<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q: What is a moval diamond?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: A moval is a hybrid diamond shape that combines the elongated body of an oval with the tapered ends of a marquise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q: What length-to-width ratio makes a diamond a moval?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: Generally, diamonds with a length-to-width ratio above approximately 1.70 begin to display the tapered appearance associated with movals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q: Is a moval the same as an elongated oval?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: Not exactly. While movals are elongated, their defining characteristic is the noticeable narrowing at the ends, which creates a shape that bridges the gap between an oval and a marquise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q: Do moval diamonds have bow ties?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: They can. Like most elongated fancy shapes, movals may exhibit a bow tie effect. The severity varies from stone to stone, making video evaluation especially important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q: What is the difference between a brilliant moval and an old mine moval?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: A brilliant moval emphasizes sparkle and brightness through modern faceting. An old mine moval features larger facets and a visible culet, creating a softer, more antique appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q: What settings work best for moval diamonds?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A: Compass-set prongs and open bridge solitaire settings are particularly popular because they protect the tapered ends while showcasing the stone&#8217;s unique shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The &#8220;moval&#8221; is a diamond shape that doesn&#8217;t neatly fit into the categories most people know.
