{"title":"Asscher Cut Lab Grown Diamond Rings","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe asscher cut is a square step cut with cropped corners and a deep pavilion, patented by Joseph Asscher in 1902 and revived through the Art Deco period. It trades the fire of a brilliant cut for clarity and depth, drawing the eye downward through concentric squares rather than scattering light across the surface. Every asscher here is a real CVD lab grown diamond, VVS clarity, D-E-F colorless.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow is an asscher different from an emerald cut?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eProportion, mainly. An emerald cut is rectangular; an asscher is square, with a length-to-width ratio close to 1.0. The asscher also has a smaller table and deeper pavilion, which produces the distinctive windmill pattern visible when you look straight down into the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy does clarity matter so much in an asscher?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause a step cut has open, mirror-like facets with nothing to disguise an inclusion. In a brilliant cut, scattered light hides small flaws; in an asscher you look straight through to the bottom. This is exactly why Ronora sets VVS clarity here rather than dropping a grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it rare?\u003c\/strong\u003e Among the less common shapes, which is part of the appeal.
