The star cut is one of the most important new cut or shape for diamonds. It is a great improvement over the previous step cut used for square and oblong diamonds. Due to scintillating brilliance star cut diamonds have become a popular and versatile choice for jewelry.
Most rough stones are best cut into star cuts rather than step-cut square baguettes of square emerald cuts. This is particularly so because star cut works best with deep stones. This allows the maximum weight retention, and lowers the final cost per carat. Because of the extra faceting, and the effects it produces, star cuts are naturally more brilliant and sparkly than ordinary square diamonds. |
