The ancient Indian literature named \u2018Arthashastra\u2019 has a clear manifestation of diamonds being considered as sacred stones with magical and spiritual powers.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Owing to this, they were used in loose, uncut and unpolished form for trading purposes only.\u00a0 Although its use in making jewellery has not been dated exactly, the idea to use them for this purpose actually stems from India. <\/span><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.langantiques.com\/university\/?s=diamonds+india\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<span style=\"color: #333399;\"><u>Source<\/u><\/span>)<\/span><\/i><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>Origin of diamond cutting: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diamond cutting has a multi-core and open-ended history. It can be traced back to the 13th century when people first realized that diamonds can also be cut into different shapes or polished to improve their appearance with the optical effect.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">Initially both the cutting and polishing were very superficial and conformed more or less to its natural shape. Let\u2019s see the history of each diamond in detail.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>History of Diamond Cuts:\u00a0<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>1. Point Cut:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">As already stated, up to the 14th century, the diamonds were cut surrounding its natural shape (Octahedral &#8211; meaning 8 sided), in Point Cut.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">Till the early 14th century, Point Cut was referred to as the slight polishing done with the diamond dust of this octahedral stone. This process made them look dark and dull.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">But in the late 14th century, the process called cleaving was established in which a chisel was placed on the diamond and hard-pressed with a mallet, contouring its natural cleavage to create the perfect Point Cut.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>2. Table Cut:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">In the mid 15th century, the process called bruting was invented and the octahedron then transformed into the Table Cut by removing one of its vertices, creating a flat surface called the Table. This surface, even now, is referred to as a diamond\u2019s Table.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">Later the concept of faceting also emerged and the Table Cut diamonds also started having a culet. But the diamond\u2019s brilliance was not yet achieved till then as the diamonds appeared dull.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>3. Single Cut:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">Adding more facets to Table Cut, the \u2018Single Cut\u2019 was born around the 16th century. This Single Cut diamond had 18 facets but a flat culet. This cut is used even today for very small-sized stones in which the full Brilliant Cut is not possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">After this, various cuts started coming into existence by adding more facets in the Single Cut. They were named after the people who first carved them. The faceting was done in such a way that it can increase the reflection of light in the stone and produce the maximum optical effect.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>4. Rose Cut:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">Throughout the 16th century, the 24 facet Rose Cut was very popular. Diamonds cut in a way to form rosettes (small diamonds grouped to form a large rose), with a flat bottom and triangular facets into the crown (making a dome-shaped top).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>5. Mazarin Cut:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">With the introduction of sawing in the 17th century, diamond cutting took a huge leap forward with the first-ever Brilliant Cut.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">The first brilliant-cut diamond was called Mazarin\u2019s Cut, named after its designer, Cardinal Jules Mazarin. The Mazarin cut had 17 facets on the crown, double than the facets of the Single Cut diamond (8 facets on the crown).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">Though they were brilliant-cut diamonds, their brilliance was much different than what we see today. First of all, the stones were shaped in rounded squares\/rectangles compared to modern circular ones. Also, the facets of these diamonds were not symmetrical, but they were similar to modern triangular-shaped facets in both the crown and pavilion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>6. Old-Mine Cut:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">In the early 18th century, the diamond faceting went on a whole new level with an increased number of facets to 58 in the old-mine cut.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">It had the same number of facets as a modern round Brilliant Cut diamond. But the shape of the Old-Mine Cut diamond was square with rounded corners. Also, this cut had a higher crown angle, smaller table and a larger culet\u00a0 than the modern round Brilliant Cut diamond.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">The reason for this distinctive cutting style was to stick closer to the natural shape of the diamond (octahedral) and also to retain the maximum weight from the rough stone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>7. Old-European Cut:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">By the end of the 18th century the Old Mine Cuts eventually evolved into the Old European Cut with a more rounded shape and distinct facet positioning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">The Old European Cut also had 58 facets but with a smaller table, higher crown angle, and a larger culet than the modern round brilliant cut<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">That\u2019s why the Old European Cut can not concentrate the brilliance straight at the top and radiates it from the sides of the diamond, which creates a dome effect and makes them less brilliant than the modern round Brilliant Cut diamonds.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>Brilliance Achieved:<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">In 1919, the book named Diamond Design was launched by Marcel Tolkowsk, in which he developed a mathematical formula to cut the diamond in a way that balances the amount of brilliance and dispersion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">He analyzed diamond brilliance, considering the spectral hues generated due to the reflection of the white light from the diamond. His calculations served as the model for the modern round Brilliant Cut diamonds.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>Modern Fancy Cuts:<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>1. Oval-Cut:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">The modern Oval Cut is nothing but a modified form of brilliant cut with the elongated crown having 58 facets. You might be surprised to know that the legendary Koh-i-Noor diamond is an Oval Cut diamond.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>2.<span style=\"color: #333399;\"> Trillion Cut:<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">The trillion cut is an unconventional triangular form of the Brilliant Cut with 31 facets on its crown having either pointed or rounded edges. The trillion cut is often used in other gemstones more than in the diamonds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><strong>3.<\/strong> <b>Radiant Cut:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">Radiant Cut is a Square-shaped Brilliant Cut with 70 facets on its crown.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>4. Princess-Cut:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">The modern Princess Cut diamond is either Square-shaped or slightly rectangular. It is not a variation of the Radiant Cut as it has a different facet pattern than Radiant Cut.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>Unique Diamond Cuts, You Will Only Find at HK:<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><center><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3255\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hk.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/image3-1024x689.jpg\" alt=\"Faith is in the name\" width=\"840\" height=\"565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hk.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/image3-1024x689.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.hk.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/image3-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hk.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/image3-768x517.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hk.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/image3-1536x1033.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.hk.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/image3-120x81.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.hk.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/image3-1200x807.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.hk.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/image3.jpg 1892w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/center><span style=\"font-weight: 400;
