The Vinci Diamond (perfection)

[fogdancer]

Shlomo Cohen, who is credited with the 1982 development of the Princess Cut diamond, has created a new cut known as the Vinci Diamond. Based on the "divine proportion," a golden ratio that was studied intensely by Leonardo da Vinci, who inspired the diamond''s name, the diamond features a 62-facet pentacle cut. By contrast, a standard round-cut diamond has 57-facets. The perfect proportions of the diamond include three pentacle stars and give a stone with this cut unprecedented brilliance. The design is patented in Japan, Israel, Belgium, and the United States, and Cohen already has marketing plans in place.

I agree with Marcy it looks very impressive. I would love to see the light performance of this beauty. I love the photography of it, but wonder the performance of it, is there any video by chance?
btw- the link doesn't work for me?

ditto!

It looks very bold and elegant, certainly makes a statement!

ETA: a rather surprising offering, actually, it's so very different from the princess!
