Gem

Abstract

A gemstone has a faceted crown which is inclined with respect to the main axis and which is defined on the one end by a preferably flat table and on the other hand by a peripheral edge of the gemstone. A faceted pavilion is inclined with respect to the main axis, adjoins the peripheral edge, and converges to a tip. The facets (3) of the crown (2) are all inclined at the same crown angle (β) with respect to the main axis (1), while the facets (7, 7′) of the pavilion (6) are inclined at two different pavilion angles (α1, α2) with respect to the main axis (1). The first set of facets (7) of the pavilion (6) which are inclined at a first pavilion angle (α1) extend to the peripheral edge (5), and the second set of facets (7′) of the pavilion (6) which are inclined at a second pavilion angle (α2) start from the tip (8) without reaching the peripheral edge (5).

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
