The Heart,

A heart-shaped gemstone is a timeless symbol of love and deep emotional value.

The Heart cut captures these emotions in their purest form, transforming them into a unique gemstone that preserves life's most precious memories for generations to come.

The Heart

The time required to cut a sapphire or ruby depends on the complexity of the chosen gemstone cut and the precision needed to polish each facet to perfection.

A classic round cut requires less time than more intricate shapes such as a heart or pear (teardrop) cut. A heart-shaped gemstone, for example, demands exceptional craftsmanship and involves many precise cutting and polishing steps to achieve perfect symmetry.

In general, we require approximately one day to complete a classic gemstone cut and up to three days for more complex designs. The size of the gemstone also influences the level of difficulty and the time needed, as larger gemstones require even greater precision throughout the cutting process.

Carat (ct) is the unit of measurement used to describe the weight of a gemstone—not its size. One carat equals 0.2 grams, or 200 milligrams.

How large a gemstone appears at a given carat weight depends on two key factors: its cut and its density. A sapphire or ruby (corundum) has a higher density than a diamond. As a result, a sapphire or ruby with the same carat weight will usually appear slightly smaller than a diamond, even though both gemstones weigh exactly the same.

For this reason, the size of different gemstones cannot be compared based on carat weight alone. In addition to weight, the gemstone's shape, cut, and material all play an important role in its visual appearance.

The Princess Cut is a popular choice for modern engagement rings. It is essentially a square-shaped gemstone cut, admired for its clean lines and brilliant sparkle.

At MEVISTO, we have reinterpreted the classic facet pattern to create our own distinctive version, which we call Timeless. It combines the elegant geometry of the Princess Cut with a unique design, making it a perfect choice for those seeking a personalized and timeless gemstone.


Because we design our own gemstone cuts and hand-cut every memorial gemstone in our manufactory, there are virtually no limits to customization.

Whether you need a custom-cut gemstone to fit an existing piece of jewelry or prefer a distinctive cut such as a Marquise, Old Mine Cut, or Cushion Cut, we can craft your personalized sapphire or ruby with the utmost precision according to your individual wishes.

The result is a truly unique gemstone that fits seamlessly into your jewelry while beautifully reflecting your personal story.

This is a question we are asked quite often. The true value of a personalized gemstone lies not in its market price, but in its deep emotional significance.

A MEVISTO gemstone is created from the unique elements of a loved one or beloved pet, making it a one-of-a-kind keepsake with a story that cannot be replicated. For this reason, selling a personalized gemstone would hold little meaning for anyone else—its value is deeply personal and truly priceless.
