Hearts On Fire

The perfection of Hearts On Fire is consistently achieved with proprietary, state-of-the-art technology in the hands of our master diamond cutters. Only 200 diamond cutters in the world possess the skill required to cut a Hearts On Fire diamond. These master diamond cutters use 100x magnification throughout the finishing process, 10 times the worldwide standard for inspection and grading. Each diamond is cut by only 1 cutter from start to finish! There is no finer super-ideal cut than a Hearts on Fire!

Eighternity

A brilliant choice in diamonds. Guaranteed. In the cut of a fine diamond, the number of its facets is only part of the story. Equally important are the stone’s balance and proportions. If the facets are not precisely placed at the proper distances and angles, light either passes directly through the stone or is deflected out the sides – not sent up to the viewer’s eye. The result is a dull, lifeless stone of inferior quality. In contrast, every Eighternity diamond is virtually perfect in its balance and proportions. With each Eighternity diamond, you receive lab reports and certifications from not one, but two of the industry’s most respected sources. No other diamond is more rigorously tested and confidently guaranteed for its quality and performance. Eighternity will Dazzle you!

Prince Cut

There is no match for the brilliance of a Prince Cut ™ When it comes to a straight edged diamond. The PrinceCut® is a modified emerald shape diamond and was also awarded U.S. and international patents in a baguette shape diamond. There are a total of 111 facets in the PrinceCut®: 41 are on the crown and 70 are on the pavilion. The PrinceCut® is available in sizes from .10 to 5 carats, colors from D to I and clarities from IF to SI2. Superior Light Performance is what Prince Cut is all about. It will blow you away!

Dream

A mere 42 diamond Cutters in the world have the skills necessary to cut Dream diamonds. More than just craftsmen, these diamond cutters are artists who devote the same meticulous care to making each Dream as they do in creating each Hearts On Fire diamond - each Dream takes over four times as long to cut than other square cut diamonds. The Dream gives you the symmetrical square shape of a cushion, with the brilliance of an ideal cut round. It’s HOT!

Cushette

The Cushette is unlike any diamond you've ever seen before. Rounded corners, but is neither round nor oval. Four sides, but is neither square nor rectangle. A shape so elegant, so distinguished, that a whole new category was created. What makes the Rosetta Process™ truly unique, is that it allows eight "Portals of Light™" to be strategically cut into the pavilion (bottom) of the Cushette® Diamond which introduces much more light into the diamond and creates an impact that we call "Diamond Impressionism." It results in a diamond that is ... breathtaking, With a radiance and dazzle like never before!

Asscher or Square Emerald Cut

The Square Emerald or Asscher cut was first created in 1902 by a renowned diamond cutter, Joseph Asscher. Several years later Joseph Asscher was chosen by King Edward VII to cut the famed Cullinan diamond for the English crown jewels. Asscher-cut diamonds are usually octagonal in shape or a square with beveled corners. They have a deep step-cut crown and pavilion that create what we call the Hall of Mirrors effect. When you look directly into a well-cut Asscher diamond you see a wonderful illusion like an infinite hallway of reflecting mirrors. A Classic, yet modern look…. Spectacular!

Emerald Cut

An Emerald Cut diamond is an elegant beauty. Looking into an Emerald cut diamond is like looking into a clear pool of water—it draws you in.



Radiant Cut

Radiant Cut diamonds are similar in shape to an Emerald cut but the facets are cut in a different pattern, which creates a brilliant look to the stone.



Princess Cut

The Princess Cut combines the liveliness of the Round, and the contemporary shape of an Emerald or Square cut.



Marquise Cut

A Marquise Cut diamond provides a diamond with two points that give an elongated look which flatters the hand.



Pear Shape

The Pear Shape diamond combines the look of the Oval and Marquise cuts, a brilliant combination of shapes.



Oval Cut

The Oval Cut diamond gives a softer, rounder look while being elongated to draw your attention around the diamond.



Heart Shape

True romantics love the Heart Shape! The two soft shoulders that lead down to one lower point...the point where two become one.



Trilliant Cut

Trilliant Cut diamonds are a newer dimension in diamonds. The three sided diamond gives a nice, modern look.



The Ideal Cut, AGS Triple Zero

In 1919, Marcel Tolkowski created a cut of diamond that combined the perfect brilliance and dispersion with a sole purpose of dazzling the viewer. Today, there are many versions of the Ideal Cut; no version is higher quality than the AGS Triple Zero.
