hehehe...i can be quick!

you''re very welcome flower.

the ''square'' part of the emerald cut makes it an ''asscher''. if it is is more rectangular in shape, it is a regular emerald cut.

actually, judging by the center portion of the stones in your first pic, that ring looks more like it has regular emerald cuts (slightly rectangular), while the stones in the second ring look more like square emerald cuts (''asschers'').
either way, you are right. they are both emerald cuts but the more square one (square emerald) could be called ''asscher'' cut.

Hi Flower ~

It''s definately ''not'' a stupid question!

I too for the longest time, didn''t know what to call what!

I am glad Miss Belle was there to answer ... She is such a fountain of knowledge & always most helpful!

Flower ... are you thinking about getting something new???

Take care & have a wonderful day!
