Abstract
Brilliant-cut gemstone, wherein the crown angle (α) is between 32.8° and 33.0°.
Description
- To increase the brilliance of a faceted cut gemstone, diverse types of cuts have been developed over time, which, on the one hand, differ by the number of facets and, on the other hand, by the mutual geometric relationships of the facet positions.
- The so-called brilliant cut has been found to be especially esthetic in particular for diamonds since this cut critically impacts the so-called “fire” of the diamond, which fire is based on numerous internal light reflections. These light reflections occur at the individual facets which have special angular relations with one another characterizing the particular cut. Consequently, the cut of a gemstone, especially that of a diamond, is decisive for the generated fire.
- Further parameters characteristic of the esthetics of a gemstone, that are dependent on the particular cut, are the scintillation describing the sparkle of a moved gemstone and the brilliance describing the brightness and the contrast of the light exiting from a gemstone. A diamond with a brilliant cut is generally also referred to as a brilliant.
- A gemstone with brilliant cut includes a crown, also referred to as the top part, with at least 32 facets and a table, as well as a pavilion, also referred to as the bottom part, with at least 24 facets. The end opposite the table of the gemstone can be formed as a point or as a rounded-off point in the form of a so-called culet. Between top and bottom part is disposed the so-called rondiste or girdle. The gemstone is cut symmetrically.
- The invention addresses the problem of further improving the esthetic impression of a gemstone with brilliant cut, for example providing increased luminous efficiency or increased luminance or brightness.
- This is resolved in a gemstone with the features of
claim 1. - Thereby that the gemstone has a brilliant cut in which the crown angle is between 32.8° and 33°, an especially high luminous efficiency was unexpectedly obtained, whereby the fire, the scintillation and the brilliance of the gemstone are being brought out especially well.
- The crown angle is that angle which, in a side view of the gemstone, is formed between the lateral boundary line of the crown and the girdle plane, wherein this boundary line results by orthogonal projection of a crown facet onto a plane containing the longitudinal axis of the gemstone.
- The girdle plane is that plane which is located parallel to the table and in which the gemstone has its greatest cross-sectional dimension. The girdle plane is oriented perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction of the gemstone.
- To measure the luminous efficiency or brightness of the gemstone, which efficiency corresponds to a reflected light fraction, measurements are carried out using an illumination arrangement and measuring specifications developed by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). The corresponding measuring specifications are found in the magazine “Gems & Gemology”, Fall 2004, pp. 202-228, in which, in particular on page 219, a measuring arrangement for measuring the brightness of a gemstone is depicted. Instead of an actual measurement, the measurement can also be computationally simulated based on the geometry of the gemstone. The measurement or the results of the simulation yield values for several characteristic light- or radiation-specific parameters of the gemstone, in particular brightness and/or luminous efficiency.
- The gemstone located in the center of the base circle is illuminated using a hemispherical illumination arrangement with directed irradiation normal to the surface. The illumination arrangement generates a Lambert beam distribution with sufficiently large sectional angle such that lateral facets of the gemstone are also illuminated. The quantity of light reflected by the gemstone represents a mean value over nearly all possible illumination configurations and consequently provides a quantitative measure of the luminous efficiency or the brightness of the gemstone. The higher the fraction of the reflected or backscattered light, the higher is the light efficiency and the brightness and the better is the reflection behavior of the gemstone, which is accompanied by esthetic perceptions of higher value.
- To measure the reflected or backscattered light serves a photo-current detector at a very large distance, relative to the dimensions of the gemstone, with a narrow measuring field.
- Further advantageous embodiments of the invention are defined in the dependent claims.
- In a preferred embodiment the pavilion angle is between 41.7° and 41.9°.
- The pavilion angle is that angle formed, in a side view of the gemstone, between the lateral boundary line of the pavilion and the girdle plane, wherein this boundary line is obtained by orthogonal projection of a pavilion facet onto a plane including the longitudinal axis of the gemstone.
- Although the gemstone according to the invention can be produced of any desired natural or synthetic precious or semiprecious stone, a gemstone of glass or synthetic material with the brilliant cut according to the invention is also feasible.
- It was herein unexpectedly found that an especially high luminous efficiency is realizable at a crown angle between 32.8° and 33° and/or at a pavilion angle between 41.7° and 41.9° if the gemstone is comprised at least to a large extent, preferably entirely, of cubic zirconia.
- The pavilion, also known as bottom part, has at least 24 pavilion facets, which come together at the end opposite the table in the form of a point or a culet. In one embodiment eight pavilion facets have a point located in the direction toward the girdle, while 16 pavilion facets have a broadside bordering on the girdle. The end located opposite the broadside of these pavilion facets forms a point and is directed away from the girdle. The orthogonal projection of the last-cited pavilion facets yields the pavilion angle.
- In one embodiment of the invention the angle between the girdle plane and those pavilion facets that have a point bordering on the girdle or located in the direction toward the girdle, is between 41.7° and 41.9°. Additionally or alternatively, it can be provided that the angle between the girdle plane and those pavilion facets that have a broadside bordering on the girdle is between 42.8° and 43.0°.
- The crown of the gemstone, also known as the top part, includes a table which is bordered by eight crown facets with one broadside each. In one embodiment of the invention these crown facets form with the girdle plane an angle between 20.2° and 20.4°.
- The crown includes furthermore sixteen crown facets which have a point bordering on the girdle. In one embodiment of the invention these crown facets form with the girdle plane an angle between 39.3° and 39.5°.
- The crown includes furthermore eight additional crown facets, each of which borders with a broadside on the girdle. In one embodiment of the invention the angle between these crown facets and the girdle plane is between 32.8° and 33.0°. The orthogonal projection of the last cited crown facets forms the crown angle.

Except for a recess for thegemstone 1, thebase circle 17 is shielded such that no light impinges on thegemstone 1 from below thebase circle 17. Also shielded is a region 19 of thehemisphere 16, which is precisely opposite thegemstone 1 and has an aperture angle α of 46°. From this region there is also no light reaching thegemstone 1. The region 19 includes a recess 20 with an angle of aperture β of 3°. This recess 20 serves as the measuring field for a detector. Consequently, above the recess 20 a detector measuring a photo current can be disposed. Instead, the particular light-specific values, such as for example the brightness, can be calculated in the region of this recess 20 in a computer simulation. - The quantity of light reflected by the
gemstone 1 represents a mean value over nearly all possible illumination configurations and consequently yields a quantitative measure of the luminous efficiency or the brightness of thegemstone 1. The reflections occur herein on distinct facets such that light is directly reflected back to the recess upon the first impingement onto the gemstone, however also after several internal reflections.
