Anyone know what specifications Tiffany uses for its cuts?
Pavillion depth
Pavillion angles
Crown height
Crown angles
Depth %
Table %

Cuts are nice but don''t want to pay for them.

Also...
Being a newbie to the diamond game, I also can't understand why GIA reports don't have more cut information on rounds. From everything I read, the additional info is critical in evaluating a diamond.

Thanks again,

Here is one example of a Tiffany stone:

0.27 ct RB, D colour, VVS1
measures 4.17-4.20 X 2.56 mm
61.2% depth
57% table diameter
culet: none
crown angle: 35
pavillion depth: 43.2%
thin girdle, good polish, very good symmetry

That was my free upgrade from a 0.24 ct stone that I turned down.

I can dig up the actual specs of my own, if you like.
 
Tiffany's stones are cut by Lazare Kaplan. Now, I haven't seen too many Tiffany reports, but from what I've seen, most tables are 57 or less. Some stones were even 61%, though. I don't know if there's an exact rule. As for depth, it looks like most stones are under 62%.
You may want to ask these (??'s) to smoe of ours Tiffany nuts.

I have seen a fairly wide variance.
There are too many AGS steep deeps for my liking, and larger table sizes.
About 1/2 the stones I have seen pass my Ideal-Scope standard, which is better than average (<10%).
