Which of the following is part of an evaluation of proportion symmetry? A. Wavy girdle B.Scratches C.Non-pointing facets D.Rough girdle

A. Wavy girdle

Calculate an estimated total depth percentage for a round brilliant diamond with the following proportions:


Crown height percentage: 12.5%


Girdle thickness percentage: 3.0%


Pavilion depth percentage: 43.0%

58.5%

The proportions that play the biggest role in determining a round brilliant diamond’s brightness are table percentage, crown angle, and

pavilion angle.

The purpose of the culet facet is to

B. prevent chipping.


Which of the following pavilion depth percentages would most likely cause the girdle reflection to be visible face-up through the table? A.45.0% B.42.0% C.48.0% D.37.0%

37.0%

Calculate an estimated total depth percentage for the following stone:


Average girdle diameter: 4.45 mm


Crown height percentage: 15.5%


Girdle thickness percentage: 7.0%


Pavilion depth percentage: 45.5%

68.0%


If a diamond’s culet is too large, it will look like

a small cavity.

A diamond with variations in alignment probably also has

misshapen facets.

Most diamonds have some symmetry variations

but they rarely affect appearance.

If a diamond’s pavilion depth percentage is 39.0 percent, its pavilion angle is approximately

38.0º

The care that goes into the fashioning of a polished diamond, as confirmed by its finish, is its

polish


As a diamond’s pavilion gets deeper, its table reflection becomes

larger

Large, very large, or extremely large culets should be considered when determining


A.symmetry. B.clarity. C.polish. D.pavilion depth percentage.

pavilion depth percentage.


A diamond’s physical shape, including its proportions and durability, determined by decisions made during the fashioning process, is its

design


A diamond with a thick girdle, steep crown, or deep pavilion represents poor value because


A. it appears smaller face-up than its weight suggests. B.it doesn’t look attractive. C.its proportions create durability problems in the polished stone. D.it can’t be set into a jewelry piece.

it appears smaller face-up than its weight suggests.
