antique stones get the chance to shine in a spectacular and unique way.
Knowing a Rose Cut Stone
Rose cut diamonds are shaped like flowers, mainly in the way the petals spiral from a bud. There are two forms worth knowing about: single rose cut, and the one with additional
facet layers. The former can be encircled with smaller
diamonds. Double
rose cut stones are
set in the center, either deep or high. They are also known as Dutch
rose cuts, resembling the famous briolette
cut. They come with horizontal
facets that are usually structured.
The
rose cut gives the
diamond a flat base, and a
faceted dome in place of the
pavilion. The exact
shape can comprise anywhere up to 24
facets, which means the rock can be customized extensively for a subtle look.
