ideal cut stone.
and it also gives you the length with ratio and the diameter. If you scan with your pointer and mouse over the L/W/D it will tell you that the length to width ratio is what makes diamonds beautiful.
There is something wrong about this photo though. It has a cert but it just is showing info by the site. Not the actual cert. but if you roll your pointer over each measurement it will tell you what each of them means.

I looked at it for a while and the crown facets that are pointing down are faceted as well
that's what I can see but my eyes are not so great.
so what would this be called then ?
solafera is 10 fold(10 arrows) so that's not it,24caratsequin|1425381439|3841152 said:Possibly a Solasfera? It's something special for sure.

If so it appears to be a Mazarin Cut - sometimes called a 'double cut brilliant' - (often associated with Princess cuts, but was a predecessor to the MRB). It is a really interesting look!
I see it too Jamie. Several tiers on the bezels and a polishing design that incorporates the stars.Jamiegems|1425386970|3841170 said:Is everyone on here so snarky all the time...

Pavilion has many narrow mains. More than 10, probably 16 as it makes mathematical sense with the crown. Very narrow, in the style of solasfera, driving pinfire scintillation. Crown inspired by Mazarin, but with multiple bezel tiers suitable for today's lighting.Diamond_Hawk said:I cannot tell from the provided information, does the Pavilion match the crown with 17 facets?

I'm sure Karl is correct.Karl_K said:24caratsequin|1425381439|3841152 said:Likely a branded cut from someone.

Interesting that the clarity plot doesn't conform to the modified bezels. In the image on the JA website you can see how two stars are incorprated into each bezel facet and run together all the way to the girdle, becoming a 3-way main. Probably not an option in the GIA library, so the crown plot doesn't appear to catch the faceting style precisely.
Very cool that JA video'd this.
