French term

baguette

French to English Marketing Mining & Minerals / Gems Jewelry
I'm translating a quotation for a custom ring.
The following info is provided:

Poids d'or : env. 15 grammes
16 diamants qualité E-F VVS taille baguette : env 1,10 carats
Un rubis Siam chauffé : 4,50 carats
Métrique : 57

Can anyone explain to me what the 'baguette' is in this context?

Thanks in advance

baguette(-cut)

English diamond dealers use the same word. It's a rectangular type of cut used for bigger stones, with less facets than brilliant-cut diamonds.
