Gemstone Faceting Diagrams by Cut Shape
Match your rough crystal's natural dimensions—from blocky garnet octahedra and hexagonal beryl prisms to elongated tourmaline pencils—with optically optimized meetpoint patterns.
Oval Gemstone Faceting Diagrams
Traditional oval cuts frequently suffer from a dark horizontal bow-tie across the belly. Our oval faceting diagrams are numerically optimized in 3D raytracing across every length-to-width ratio to keep the center bright and evenly lit.
Round Gemstone Faceting Diagrams
Radial symmetry makes round stones the purest canvas for light-return engineering—from fast-cutting low-tier rounds for small rough to intricate floral and vortex patterns on 96, 80, and 64 index gears.
Hexagon & Truncated Hexagon Faceting Diagrams
Six-fold and three-fold hexagonal geometry naturally creates bold architectural reflections, honeycomb stars, and high rough yield from hexagonal beryl, sapphire, and quartz crystals.
Emerald Cut & Rectangular Faceting Diagrams
Built for elongated rough like tourmaline, aquamarine, and imperial topaz, these rectangular and cut-corner emerald designs eliminate the dead center window common in traditional step cuts.
Square & Cushion Cut Faceting Diagrams
Four-fold square and soft-sided cushion outlines maximize weight retention from blocky garnet, spinel, quartz, and synthetic rough while delivering crisp Maltese-cross and pixel-like contrast.
Trillion & Triangle Gemstone Faceting Diagrams
Trillions and truncated triangles offer massive face-up spread per carat and dramatic three-fold flash—with truncated-corner options that protect brittle gem tips during setting.
Shield Cut Gemstone Faceting Diagrams
Shield cuts deliver bespoke, high-jewelry silhouettes for center stones and pendants without sacrificing optical brightness or clean meetpoint geometry at the dop.
Pear & Teardrop Gemstone Faceting Diagrams
Asymmetric pear cuts are notoriously difficult to light evenly from rounded belly to tapered point. Our pear diagrams optimize every pavilion tier together so both ends sparkle uniformly.
Marquise Gemstone Faceting Diagrams
Marquise outlines give the largest visual spread per carat of any classic gem shape, tuned here to suppress central bow-tie shadows while keeping both tips crisp and bright.
Octagon, Pentagon, Kite & Polygon Faceting Diagrams
From eight-fold octagons to five-fold pentagons, odd-symmetry heptagons, kites, and lozenges, these geometric polygon diagrams turn standard rough into unforgettable collector centerpieces.
