Today, we are going to introduce a kind of gem cutting, it has a long history, royal "blood" and unique charm, but most people don't know its name - Asscher.

The Asscher cutter was first invented by Dutch diamond cutter Joseph Asscher in 1902 and was popular during the Art Deco period and after World War I. You may not know the name Joseph Asscher, but you have heard of the world's largest diamond cut by him -- Cullinan. In 1905, the Cullinan diamond, weighing 3,106 carats, was found in South Africa and given to Britain's King Edward VII by the South African government.Joseph Asscher, who was summoned by King Edward III of England, successfully processed the rough diamond into nine giant diamonds and 96 smaller ones. Cullinan I, also known as the Star of Africa, is mounted on the scepter of the King of England, and Cullinan II is mounted in the Royal Imperial State Crown, worn by the Queen to the annual State opening of Parliament.

Asscher is a diamond shape made by combining emerald cutting with square cutting, which has a gorgeous step-like effect. Emerald cutting is generally used for colored stones, while Asscher is mostly diamonds. As the Art Nouveau period gradually reached its peak, the emeralds and Asscher began to gain popularity.

The Asscher cut diamond has 58 facets and is almost octagonal. Joseph Asscher thinks it preserves more of the rough stone. This is because Asscher cuts retain more weight from the raw stone than other cutting methods. Due to the shape of the stone and the way it is cut and polished, the Asscher cut has a classic appearance, more balanced light than similar emerald cutting tools, while still exhibiting a quieter aesthetic than modern bright cuts.

What is lab grown diamond and mine diamond?

First, both lab grow diamond and natural diamonds are real diamonds, which can be understood as the relationship between natural ice and ice in the refrigerator. Both are the same in the naked eye and physical and chemical properties, so ordinary people cannot identify them by the naked eye alone. Therefore, if you want to distinguish between cultivated diamonds and natural diamonds, you need to distinguish between them through a professional gem identification agency. IGI, for example, is where both natural and cultivated diamonds can be distinguished and reported. If it is a CVD/HPHT diamond, the text on the certificate: LAB GROWN indicates that the diamond is laboratory-grown diamond.

All professional and authoritative third-party testing agencies have the ability to issue grading certificates and will disclose in the report whether they are diamonds, "naturally mined diamonds" or "artificially cultivated diamonds". With the guarantee of authoritative laboratories and institutions, Lab created diamonds are increasingly accepted by the public, and many celebrities and celebrities have worn LGD on important occasions.
