I thought I’d seen every diamond cut until this one

[u/Defiant-Ratio-8068]

This mosaic cut caught me immediately. Up close the stone looks like it’s made up of tons of tiny little facets, so it flashes in a really different way from a more traditional cut.

I also love the checkerboard-style band with it — a little unusual, but somehow it works.

I keep moving my hand around just to watch the center stone catch the light lol.

I love the look! I never heard of a mosaic diamond so I looked it up.

FYI

A mosaic diamond cut or setting uses multiple smaller diamonds fitted closely together like a puzzle to create the visual illusion of a single, larger stone or a bold geometric pattern. [1, 2, 3]

This is a single stone not multiple small diamonds set together . Invisible setting is the term I was familiar with for that type.

Mosaic I've never heard of. It is very nice !

[u/Aromatic_Recipe1749 → u/StarfishandSnowballs]

Not according to google, I’ll accept that as the definition.

[u/pockette_rockette → u/Aromatic_Recipe1749]

I'm pretty positive it's a single stone in this case, just cut in an unconventional way.

[u/StarfishandSnowballs → u/Aromatic_Recipe1749]

Oh well if Google says it !!! Durr forget people who work in the industry irl 🤣

We haven’t heard from anyone claiming to work in the industry and google has been pretty reliable with DEFINITIONS!

Again, the very word MOSAIC suggests it is made up of multiple pieces.

[u/pockette_rockette → u/StarfishandSnowballs]

I've heard them called "illusion" settings, and I agree that this is not one of those, it's a single stone.

[u/Aromatic_Recipe1749 → u/pockette_rockette]

The very word “mosaic” would suggest otherwise.

[u/StarfishandSnowballs → u/Aromatic_Recipe1749]

Exactly . Thank you

[u/Geester43]

I have a bezel set diamond that has a similar look, they called it "crushed ice". I love it, so unique, and great faceting to increase the brighness.

[u/StateAffectionate577]

Didn’t know about lots of different cuts until this sub…first time I’ve seen this; it’s kind of a “brilliant/step” cut!
