The Magic Of Fire Traditional Ideal Diamond Cut Comparison
Traditionally, diamonds are evaluated face up only, and are designed
and proportioned to perform at 90 degrees front. However, in reality,
diamonds are never static face front. The Octagon Nova overcomes this
norm by being polished step by step and performs extraordinarily at up
to 30 degree tilts. This creates a symphonic burst of edge to edge fire
display throughout the entire diamond, no matter how the diamond is
tilted.
In comparison to what's available in the industry, under the same
lighting conditions, the closest to compare to would be the diamonds
that fall into the GIA triple Excellent or AGS Ideal (0) zenith. A typical
Ideal cut or GIA triple Excellent (shallow or steep/ deep) as displayed
below portrays much less fire under these polarized direct lights. The
Octagon Nova fire surpasses even the best Super Ideal Cut (57 facets
Round brilliant), not just face up but at tilted angles as well.
