Abstract

L'invention concerne une pierre précieuse à taille symétrique de taille princesse (Fig.1) ou de taille coussin (Fig. 8) qui comprend visuellement une forme de cœur (Z1) à l'intérieur et son procédé de fabrication. La pierre précieuse a une culasse inférieure avec une pluralité de facettes de culasse qui émergent vers le haut à partir de la colette et sont disposés autour de la surface de culasse de part et d'autre d'une ligne d'axe (C') (Fig 3, 10). Les facettes de culasse sont symétriques par rapport aux facettes de culasse correspondantes de l'autre côté de l'axe. Les facettes de culasse comprennent des facettes triangulaires (L), des facettes chevrons (M,N) et des facettes principales de culasse, toutes à des angles spécifiques les unes par rapport aux autres. La facette principale de culasse (O) est en forme de cerf-volant, avec des côtés courts (P) convergeant au niveau de la colette, des côtés longs (Q) en des 1ers points (R) à une profondeur de rondiste de 70 à 86 % et des côtés longs et courts en des 2nds points (S) à une profondeur de rondiste de 88 % à 95 % ; des paires de demi-facettes courtes de culasse (T) sont facettées à partir de facettes chevrons (M,N), et s'alternent entre les côtés des facettes principales de culasse (O) et sont formées le long d'un câble (RR) joignant les 1ers points. La pierre précieuse fait un angle à des 1ers demi-angles courts de culasse (Y) à la profondeur de rondiste du 1er point, et ils sont de 15° à 30° inférieurs à l'angle principal de Triangle (W), et de 2° à 9° inférieurs aux angles de chevron (X, X1). Les 1ers demi-angles courts de culasse (Y) le long du câble de paires alternées de facettes chevrons ont une variance de 0,05° à 9° ; (Fig. 5, 5a, 11, 11a). La 1ère interphase commune des demi-facettes courtes de culasse coupe (R') le câble ; les 2nds demi-angles inférieurs courts de culasse (Z) autour de la pierre précieuse à la profondeur de rondiste du 2nd point, sont de 0,25° à 8° inférieurs aux 1ers demi-angles courts de culasse (Y) ; la variance angulaire le long de la 2nde interphase commune entre des facettes principales de culasse (O) et les demi-facettes courtes de culasse adjacentes (T), est de 0,05° à 9°, et au niveau de l'interphase côté court des facettes principales de culasse adjacentes est dans la plage de 0,05° à 9°. La profondeur de rondiste du 1er point d'une paire de facettes principales de culasse symétriques (O3,O6) et le point d'intersection de câble de la ligne d'axe passant par une paire de demi-facettes courtes de culasse ayant un côté commun le long de la ligne d'axe est approximativement identique et de 0,5 % à 10 % inférieure aux profondeurs de rondiste des facettes principales de culasse restantes. Une indentation d'un cœur parfait est formée par une paire de demi-facettes courtes de culasse ayant le 1er demi-angle court de culasse à des profondeurs approximativement comprises entre le 1er point et le 2nd point des facettes principales de culasse.
