There seem to be more facets on the bowtie than I've seen in modern ovals and pears.

Although I can't recall the names, I do recall that some companies cut extra facets on the bowtie to reduce the darkening effect.  Seems like the cutter of this stone is one of them, and I am glad you posted, as I hadn't really understood that until i saw this picture...
 
I hope someone can answer your question, as i too am curious.  I just think it's got extra facets, and may not really have a NAME per se....but who knows!

HI:

Yes, please, any info. on this would be great--I LOVE ovals and wish to upgrade my present RB/ER to a large oval. Funny, with all the searching I've done lately, I've not come across "newer" cut ovals. Keep searching I guess.

cheers

Did you already review FAQs section that displayed some different examples of oval shapes?

HI:

Yes, thanks, I've viewed the FAQ's as well as Dave Atlas' fancy cut section--which was superb.
Any other tips?
