Abstract: A gemstone includes a crown, a pavilion, and a girdle disposed between the crown and the pavilion. The girdle has an elliptical cross-section with a major axis and a minor axis. The surface of the gemstone is generally divided into a number of groups of interlocking facets disposed at a variety of angles. The groups of facets comprising the surface of the crown generally include star facets, upper intermediate crown facets, lower intermediate crown facets, main crown facets, and upper girdle facets. The upper girdle facets generally abut an upper edge of the girdle. The groups of facets comprising the surface of the pavilion include culet-adjacent facets, candle facets, main pavilion facets, and lower girdle facets. The lower girdle facets generally abut a lower edge of the girdle.

Abstract: Presented herein is a diamond comprising a table, a crown, a girdle, a pavilion, and a culet. The table is rectangular, having a length and a width. The table includes a first side, adjacent to a second side, adjacent to a third side, and adjacent to a fourth side. The first side of the table is directly connected with a first facet of the girdle. The second side of the table is directly connected with a second facet of the girdle. The crown includes a plurality of facets connecting the third side and the fourth side of the table to the girdle. The pavilion is connected to the girdle. The culet is positioned directly below a point having a 1% deviation from the center of the girdle.
