It is a Tycoon cut. This is a cut which combines a traditions emerald cut pavilion (bottom), with a design that orients the table at 45 degrees. There's actually some aspects of the light performance that remind me of the specialty cut asschers, but it's not the same.
The design and size of the diamond do tend to promote fire - a rainbow effect where the diamond is acting as a prism. The diamond is remarkably bright - totally capitalizing on the icy white F body color. The stone also has a great spread for the weight.
GIA graded the diamond SI1 due primarily to a few carbon crystals. I can see them in the pictures, however the diamond is eye clean in real life. I can see this in a halo, or a solitaire.
Although I generally tend to like the more "traditional" designs, this one is something else - yet it captured my affection. |
