Jewelry 101: What Are Movals?
A Moval is the signature of Rahaminov’s Jewelers—a distinctive diamond cut that blends the best features of a marquise and an oval. It’s longer and more elongated than a typical oval-cut diamond, giving it a striking, elegant silhouette that immediately sets it apart.
Each Moval diamond is sculpted based on the unique characteristics of the rough stone. Rather than being forced into a standard shape, every diamond is allowed to guide the cutter’s hand, resulting in a one-of-a-kind gem. No two Moval diamonds are alike, and that individuality is part of their enduring appeal.
This extended, graceful silhouette has become part of Rahaminov’s design language and is now synonymous with the brand itself. While traditional oval-cut diamonds are symmetrical and softly rounded, the Moval offers a sleeker, more stretched profile. Its dramatic length-to-width ratio enhances both brilliance and visual impact, making it appear larger and more slender than its actual carat weight.
The Moval delivers the fire and sparkle expected from a classic oval, but with a more modern and sculptural edge. Its elongated shape not only draws the eye but also flatters the hand—creating the illusion of longer, more graceful fingers. This makes it especially appealing to those who want a bold, eye-catching look without increasing carat size.
More than just a cut, the Moval is a contemporary expression of Rahaminov’s heritage—crafted with the precision, artistry, and attention to detail the house has perfected over the last 80 years. Available exclusively through Rahaminov Diamonds, the Moval reflects the brand’s deep commitment to innovation in fine jewelry, offering clients something truly distinctive and unforgettable.
