What is the difference between a baguette cut and other diamond cuts?

The baguette cut is a rectangular shape with step-like facets, while other diamond cuts, such as round or princess, have different shapes and facet arrangements. Baguette cuts are known for their clean lines and understated elegance, making them ideal for side stones. Other cuts may offer more brilliance and sparkle, depending on their facet patterns.
