Asscher Cut

Asscher cut diamonds

become more and more popular since their geometrical square shape has a couple of advantages over other cutting; this is also somehow similar to princess cut which is also a straight geometric cut.

The Asscher Brothers from the Netherlands

tried something new in 1902. They cutted the stone into a square and made multiple steps, somehow as it is with the emerald cut, but that's a rectangle but Asschers cut is kept completely square with only minor differences according to the nature of the precious stone and the ration when possible, and the length to width ratio is not more than 1 to 1.05. The usual application is to function as a complementary stone with other diamonds, where square or rectangular shape is required.

Corners are rounded cropped this feature makes the stone less prone to damages and the

reflecting colors are enhanced.

Asschers cut is somehow a synthesis

of different cuts to eliminate the negative sides of that cuts. There are rounded edges resulting in durability and the step cutting supply a better disperse of the light, means enhance "fire".

Diamonds with this cut

are still not widely available since most people just don't know the positive sides and that's means no actual demand on the other hand, because of the cut flows can be more easy visible but on the other side the round corners supply better colors, the whole is a bit an academic discussion because as a combined unit in a ring all this is not so much visible, but one thing is for sure, this cut produces a real "firework" and that looks great.
