Checkerboard
Checkerboard crowns stretch facets into squares across the table, yielding bold sparkle even on shallow stones. This layout is popular for colored gems that rely on saturation rather than brilliance.
Design Highlights
- Square outline with evenly spaced crown facets to create the grid effect.
- Flatter crown to keep the table broad while still offering relief cuts.
- Pavilion angles tuned shallow to keep depth low for weight retention.
