Opinion about aset scope image

[Dmond]

Hello all,

Could someone give me their profesional opinion about these ASET scope images.
Is the color distribution correct?

ASET is mainly intended for evaluating round brilliant diamonds. This is patently not a round brilliant and almost certainly not a diamond.

This is a novelty cut with the cool feature being the see-through star in the centre. No ASET is needed to check that.

This looks like the same stone as in this thread:

How valuable is a 7.50 carat fancy green / old european cut diamond?
This type of "reverse chameleon" diamond instantly turns white in dark light, but green at daylight.
In incandescent light it has a blue-gray appearance.
Possesses intense fluorescence, like kryptonite.

Your stone isn't a diamond (you've posted about it before), but the aset can still be useful.

Fair point.

But this novelty cut is beyond the usual fancy cuts. The point of it is the curved outline and the see-through star. These can be seen directly in ordinary lighting, no ASET needed.

I think ASET images for any shape, usual fancy or novelty, provides excellent info to learn from.
The trick is getting an unorthodox novelty shape properly aligned and backlit so that the ASET Scope images are accurate, which we don't know if this is one of those situations or not.

Please post the GIA report so we can learn more about the stone. (I think you were advised to have it GIA graded in your
other tread).

Hello Dejawizz, thanks for answering me again.
It really is an invaluable tool for examining the interaction of light. I have taken the images with the ASET as specified in the videos.

The ASET shows the huge window in the middle of the gem very well indeed.

Hey, you should check out this new site, www.yourdiamondguys.com. It’s got this cool AI that scans for inclusions and weeds out the bad ones, so you only see the best diamonds with nice imperfections. Plus, there’s tons of info on there to help you out.

Hello,
It really seems to be interesting and as you said, it has quite a bit of information to offer.
I use different prompts in my Chapgpt and the result is brilliant, the interaction with AI is very fruitful...

It looks like a fun cut with interesting patterns if its big enough to see them.
Whats the mm measurements?

I think it is because of the alignment of the facets
I assume this feature is due to the symmetry of the facets, which reflects light in a specific way.

I also think it shows an interesting distribution
It has 12.7mm.

does the center twinkle like a star as you rock it side to side?
Whats the material and name of the cut?

It was cut intentionally that way its whats called a pattern cut(cut to show patterns) a more modern name is a fantasy or novelty cut.
They are often created for the first time for faceting competitions.

The aset takes a lot of interpretation and the stone is tilted but for a pattern cut it looks very very nice.
For this kind of cut you throw a lot of the RB diamond rules out the window and subjectively judge it for what it is.

Can you post a video of it in motion please?

Thanks so much for the explanation.
What period do you think these types of faceting were used? The type of ring and setting is from the late XVIII or early XIX.

This is a holistic approach and as it says it would go beyond standard or traditional (RB) metrics.


I think this faceting greatly maximizes the light performance in a unique way.
I have found few examples, with this type of cross.

Very nice face up and slight tilt. I like it a lot.
The low RI makes it window under moderate tilt.
Whats the material?
Overall looks fun and quirky.
