The Round, or Brilliant Cut Diamond is, by far, the
most popular shape for diamond engagement rings. It is
cone-shaped to maximize light return through the top of
the diamond. It is cut to have 58 facet - 33 on the
crown and 25 on the pavilion. The relationship between
the angle of the crown (above the girdle) and the
pavilion (below the girdle) is complementary. A steep
crown angle is complemented by a shallower pavilion
angle & vice versa.
