- Brilliant Cut - In their naturally occuring state diamonds have little life or sparkle and for many centuries were simply cut in half and worn in amulets. Invented at the end of the 17th century by a Venetian diamond cutter, a "brilliant cut" diamond has 58 facets arranged in a regular geometric relationship, with 33 above the crown and 25 below on the pavilion.
The introduction of the brilliant cut increased the popularity of diamonds in jewellery as it was the first cut to reveal the fire of the diamond, with the light being internally reflected from one facet to another, and was superior to the previously used table cut and rose cut.Variants to the brilliant cut have emerged since the end of the 17th century, but the popularity of the original brilliant cut has continued to the present time, where it is still the most commonly found cut.
. - Herringbone Link in Jewellery (component) - The herringbone link is a jewellery chain pattern that is named after the distinctive V-shaped pattern that it creates, resembling the bones of a herring fish. It is a popular and classic design that has been used in various types of jewellery, including bracelets, necklaces, and earrings.
The herringbone link is characterized by its tightly woven pattern, which features rows of thin, flat metal links that are arranged in a crisscross or zigzag pattern. The links are typically angled at 45 degrees, creating a distinctive "V" shape that gives the chain its unique appearance.
