Note: The emerald-cut diamond, famous for its stair-like shape, has a new cousin: the Criss-cut diamond.
Its increased number of facets gives it more sparkle and shine than an ordinary emerald cut diamond.
The "Crisscut," created bu Christopher Slowinski in 1998, is a rare diamond cut with a distinctive and uncommon facet.
Christopher made this unusual diamond cut while attempting to create an "Emerald" shaped diamond.
The diamond now has a unique texture known as a "Crisscut" because of his careless cutting.
An Emerald Cut diamond has only 44 facets, while a Crissout diamond has 77.
Diamonds of many shapes and sizes, including the famous Emerald Cut, Cushion Cut, Asscher Cut, and even round, can benefit from this treatment.
Crisscrossing facets are the defining feature of this cut.
This diamond cut's sparkle is unlike any other precious diamond cut.
