The Story: The Marquise ring is a type of oblong-shaped ring of French design. It is characterized by a central gemstone surrounded by smaller stones, most often diamonds. This unique and sophisticated ring was inspired by the Marquise de Pompadour, mistress of King Louis XV of France. According to legend, the king had a ring created inspired by Madame de Pompadour’s smile. The Marquise design has become extremely popular in jewelry, particularly as an engagement ring.
