Asscher Diamond Rings
Asscher Diamond Rings
Art Deco, distilled. Nivara's asscher lab-grown diamond rings are a square step cut with cropped corners and concentric facets that draw the eye straight to the centre of the stone. Geometric, vintage, and unmistakably deliberate, it is the shape for a woman who wants something few others wear.
Each asscher-cut diamond is IGI-certified and set in 14K or 18K BIS-hallmarked gold, in rose, yellow, or white. Every ring is fully insured and backed for life by Nivara's care, returns, and exchange.
Like the emerald cut, asscher shows clarity openly. Read the diamond shapes guide to choose between the two, or explore the full engagement ring collection.
Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is an asscher cut?
An asscher is a square step cut with deeply cropped corners, giving it an octagonal outline and a distinctive series of concentric squares that draw the eye inward, often described as a hall of mirrors. It is one of the most architectural diamond shapes and reads as deliberately vintage. This is a small, deliberate edit of two designs, the Amara asscher halo ring and a Toi et Moi pairing a radiant with an asscher.
Why does an asscher demand such high clarity?
Its open step facets give you a clear view straight into the stone, so there is nowhere for an inclusion to hide. An asscher at a middling clarity grade shows its flaws plainly. Every Nivara solitaire is VVS or IF clarity and D or E colour, which is the range where this cut looks the way it is meant to, and each stone is IGI certified with the report number laser inscribed on the girdle. Smaller diamonds are VVS or VS clarity, E or F colour.
Why are there only two asscher designs?
The asscher is a specialist shape and we would rather cut two designs properly than pad the page. If you want an asscher in a setting you do not see here, our showroom teams in Hyderabad, Bangalore, Indore and Ahmedabad can take you through a made to order piece. All four showrooms are open 7 days a week from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm.
What do these rings cost?
The two designs currently sit at about ₹59,000 and about ₹1,44,000. At 1 carat and above, a solitaire is ₹50,000 per carat in a round and ₹55,000 per carat in every other shape. Smaller diamonds begin at ₹32,000 per carat, each priced to its size, colour, clarity and shape. The setting and metal are additional. The Toi et Moi is the higher of the two because it carries two significant stones.
Is an asscher a good everyday ring?
The cropped corners make it more robust than a sharp cornered square, and diamond is a 10 on the Mohs scale. The practical consideration is upkeep rather than durability. Those broad flat facets show smudges quickly, so a weekly clean in warm water with a drop of mild soap and a soft brush keeps the mirror effect working. Any Nivara showroom will clean and check the setting for you.
What if I want to move to a different design in future?
The lifetime exchange gives you 100% of the current gold value and 100% of the current diamond value towards another piece, with making charges and taxes waived within 15 days of purchase and deducted after. The lifetime buyback gives you 100% of the current gold value and 85% of the current diamond value, with making charges and taxes always deducted.
