Pink sapphires are cut in a variety of ways, depending on the shape and size of the stone. The most common shapes are round, oval, pear, and marquise. Sapphires are also sometimes cut into more unusual shapes, such as hearts or triangles. The type of cut used also depends on the quality of the sapphire. The best quality stones are usually cut into rounds or ovals, while lower quality stones may be cut into less perfect shapes.
