emerald cut
Faceted rectangular gemstone
An emerald cut is a rectangular gemstone cut with stepped facets parallel to the edges, creating a hall-of-mirrors effect rather than the sparkle of brilliant cuts.
Named for its original use with emeralds, the cut now appears on diamonds and other stones: a three-carat emerald-cut diamond.
The shape emphasizes clarity over fire.
