What’s interesting about virtual facets in, say, a diamond floral ring, is that these change whenever you turn the diamond to a side. When you are at the jewelry store inspecting a diamond by tilting it, the steep-deep kind would give off a great amount of fire. The reason for this is that the angles of the pavilion and crown facets, when tilted, change. Light doesn’t leak, but instead gets returned by the virtual facets.   Steeper facets are seen to be larger, and so are their virtual facets. The larger the virtual facet, the more fire it will give off. So if you have a steep-deep diamond that looks good at the jewelry but not outside, it is because of the lighting. What this means is that the tilt angle of the diamond is a vital component. Diamonds that do not look too flattering under fluorescent lights can still outshine the rest under spotlight.
