If you’ve ever found yourself torn between the elongated elegance of a marquise and the soft romance of an oval, allow us to introduce your new diamond crush: the Moval. It’s the shape you didn’t know you were searching for—sleek, sultry, and just rare enough to feel extra special.

At Gem Breakfast, we’re obsessed with Movals for their unique silhouette, vintage soul, and versatile style. Read on to learn everything you need to know about this quietly iconic cut.

Are Moval diamonds rare?

Yes, Movals are relatively rare, especially compared to popular cuts like round or oval. Most Moval diamonds are custom cut or found in vintage pieces, which adds to their uniqueness. At Gem Breakfast, we hand-select each Moval for exceptional proportions and that hard-to-describe ✨it✨ factor.

If you spot one in our collection, don’t wait—they never stick around for long.

Are Moval diamonds vintage or modern?

Both. And that’s what makes them so versatile.

Movals have vintage roots, often appearing in Art Deco and Mid-Century designs. But they’re having a serious modern moment thanks to their clean lines and graceful form. We love using Movals in both classic solitaire settings and unexpected cluster designs. Want to make it feel extra modern? Try an east-west orientation—trust us.

Are Moval diamonds good for engagement rings?

Absolutely. Moval diamonds are an excellent choice for engagement rings—especially for those seeking something timeless yet uncommon. Their shape naturally elongates the finger and adds visual intrigue without feeling trendy.

They pair beautifully with minimal settings for a sleek look, or can be dressed up with side stones or halos for extra sparkle.

Can Moval diamonds be lab-grown?

Yes! Movals are available in both natural and lab-grown diamonds, and we’re big fans of both. Lab-grown Movals offer a more budget-friendly and sustainable option without sacrificing quality or beauty. Whether you go natural or lab, we’ll help you find a Moval that makes your heart skip.

How do Movals compare to ovals or marquise cuts?

Think of the Moval as the Goldilocks of elongated diamonds:

• Softer than marquise

• More defined than oval

• Perfectly in between

Marquise cuts can feel a little sharp, while ovals may lack edge. Movals bring the ideal balance—refined and romantic with just the right dose of bold.

What are the best settings for Moval diamonds?

Movals shine in all kinds of settings, but here are a few of our faves:

• East-West Solitaires – Unexpected and ultra-sleek

• Vintage-Inspired Clusters – Play up their retro roots

• Two-Stone Rings – Pair with a pear, trillion, or round

• Bezel Settings – Chic, secure, and perfect for daily wear

Their shape is adaptable—meaning they look amazing whether you want edgy-modern or full-on romantic.

Final Thoughts: Is a Moval Right for You?

If you’re drawn to stones that feel timeless yet different, and you love clean lines with just a touch of boldness, a Moval diamond might be your forever stone. It’s not something everyone has, and that’s exactly the point.

At Gem Breakfast, we’re always hunting for that next stunning Moval to add to our collection. And if you don’t see the one? We can help you create it from scratch.
