Table size?
And a profile rendering...
40% im allready off on the next design hehehehehe
Ok..., here is one for you...

Try to design the spreadiest/shallowest Asscher Cut based on a 60-40 model...

60% of the depth in the pavilion and 40% of the height on the crown...

Total depth around 45-48%


There is got to be a great combination there somewhere...

Iv got a couple in that range with 10% crowns, it might be do able with 3c/2p but 3c/3p I doubt it.
I played with it a little and the light return was in the 30% range due too the pavilion angles.
It will have too wait until I figure out the cut designer.

15 degree tilt.

imho these small tabled high crown asschers need a bit of contrast under the table too balance the contrast lost with the small table.
Id consider this one over optimised or at least on the border of being so.

Can you show me this in a 15 deg. tilt? And a profile renderings?
Why did you go shallower on c3? because of the td%?

center became a tiny tiny dot so changed the p3, c3 is the same, would look like a black hole.

Ok..., try:

p
50
41
33
ch 24.3
td: 72% +/-
t 40%

Let see if it brings back a bit of contrast...

td becomes 75.2% I think I can make this combo work by playing with pavilion facet placement.

nope couldn''t....
The only way to get some contrast back is move p2 away from 41 degrees.

edit: 10 degrees tilt shows its going too have large scint events as the large black areas shift around under the table.

this is getting funny you keep moving me back too 41 and I keep moving away from it lol
It really comes down too the amount of contrast you want in a stone and its personal preference.
keeping it around 41 gives the RA effect of small conrast.
Part of it may be that I think in the 1 to 2 maybe 3ct range and you think in the 5-10ct range.. maybe?

WOW! Haha...that''s really funny, but alarming at the same time. Makes me kinda wish that diamond prices went by diameter rather than weight.
