The marquise silhouette creates visual length on the neckline while allowing light to move across the stone's 58-facet structure.

Why the Marquise Cut Works for Natural Gemstones
The marquise cut originated in 18th-century Paris, commissioned by Louis XV to mirror the shape of his mistress's smile. Today, this football-shaped silhouette remains a practical choice for colored gemstones because it retains more rough stone during cutting than round or princess shapes. The result: larger-looking stones at comparable carat weights. Our marquise necklaces feature natural stones including turquoise from Arizona's Sleeping Beauty mine, Baltic amber aged 40-50 million years, and labradorite from Madagascar known for its blue-green flash. Each stone sits in .925 sterling silver, an alloy containing 92.5% pure silver mixed with copper for durability. Sterling holds up to daily wear without the premium of gold settings. SilverRush Style has operated since 2005, shipping from the US with no additional fees on domestic orders.
