The outline of a heart shape lab diamond can vary more than people expect. Some cutters favor a rounder, fuller silhouette, while others cut a narrower, more elongated heart with a sharper point. Both styles use the same 56- 59 facet brilliant pattern, but the finished look on the hand or in a pendant can feel noticeably different depending on that outline.
To give you an idea, an E color heart shaped diamond of 0.31 carat, IGI-certified, Ideal cut, VVS2 clarity can cost around $123. Carat weight tends to be the biggest driver of price in this shape, with clarity and cut quality playing a close second, since any asymmetry or dullness in the facets is immediately obvious in a stone this recognizable.
A VVS2 clarity grade keeps a heart shape diamond looking clean to the naked eye, which matters here since the pointed tip and inner cleft can catch and hold small inclusions. Strong cut grading is equally important, since it’s what allows the brilliant facet pattern to throw light evenly across both lobes.
Setting choice plays a big role in how the heart shape reads visually. A trellis or claw-prong setting keeps the two lobes open and visible, which tends to work best on smaller stones. Bezel settings offer more everyday protection but can slightly soften the point if not cut precisely to the stone’s outline.
