It depends exactly what you mean by diamond shape

If you have two adjacent sides congruent (same length) and another pair of adjacent sides also congruent... so it looks like a kite.... you have what we call a deltoid.

Deltoids look like kites. The two sides on the top are the same length, and the two sides on the bottom are the same length. The two angles on the sides (where one side of a particular length meets a side of a different length), those angles opposite one another are also congruent (same measure). Diagonals are perpendicular

Now, a deltoid that has all four sides congruent to one another, so it looks more like a proper diamond... that is called a rhombus. Opposite angles are congruent. Adjacent angles are supplementary. Diagonal are perpendicular to one another also, but they also bisect one another.

A rhombus whose angles are all right angles is a square.

Is an arch a mathematical shape?

No shape is mathematical really unless it has been created by a mathematical formula, but is certainly a geometric shape. But anything which is a 2D or 3D shape is geometric. My improvement: A catenary curve from a mathematical equation such as cosh x, is a mathematical and natural shape. Maby each other arch can be approximated by a mathematical formula.
