Celebrities with a 4-carat engagement ring know the deal: it has the right amount of balance when it comes to size and light reflections. It also has a significant size and a bedazzling look that lingers in the memory, moreso for those with unique diamond cuts.

Reese Witherspoon’s engagement ring from her now ex-hubby Jim Toth, features a unique, 4-carat Ashoka cut solitaire diamond crowned on a pave platinum ring. This cut resembles an emerald cut diamond, but Ashoka cuts have 62 facets, adding to its fire and brilliance. The two may no longer be together, but the ring that united them are still in many people’s minds.
2. Lea Michele
Lea Michele of Glee got engaged to Zandy Reich on April 28, 2018 with this lovely engagement ring that has a 4-carat elongated radiant-cut diamond with a halo of small round diamonds, perched on a thin pavé platinum band.
The center diamond can sometimes look like an emerald cut one, but there are slight differences.
Radiant cut diamonds have 70 brilliant facets that create smaller flashes and light reflections inside. Emerald cuts use 58 step cut facets with its trademark “hall of mirrors” design that produce wider light reflections
