The original “round brilliant” cut was developed by Marcel Tolkowsky in 1919. The modern round brilliant consists of 57/58 facets. The round brilliant cut diamond is by far the most popular and most researched diamond shape available today. For almost 100 years, diamond cutters have been using advanced theories of light behavior and precise mathematical calculations to optimize the fire and brilliance in a round diamond.
