My mother just dropped off my great grandmother''s diamond to be removed from an old ring for my engagement ring and she mentioned something about this optical illusion in the stone. It is an old european cut, approx 60points, no visible flaws, and that when you look straight down on the stone, it looks like there is a hole at the bottom (but the bottom comes to a point). So my question is can anyone explain to my why it would look that way? Thanks so much for any help.
