The cutting of a diamond and giving it the right proportion can make or break a diamond. The beauty, variety and concentration of the prismatic colours emitted, and the brilliance (sparkle of the diamond) directly depend on the proper cutting and proportioning of the diamond. Obtaining the optimum Table and Depth proportions are critical for superior diamonds.
		Crown  is the upper part of the diamond above the girdle. It consists of the table, a large flat area on top, and several facets below.
		Girdle  is the outer edge or the widest part of the diamond forming a band around the stone
		Pavilion  is the bottom part of the diamond below the girdle
		Table  is the flat facet on the top of the diamond. It is the largest facet on a cut diamond.
		Table percentage:  The value which represents how the diameter of the table facet compares to the diameter of the entire diamond. So, a diamond with a 60% table has a table which is 60% as wide as the diamond's outline.
		Facets  are the smooth, flat faces on the surface of a diamond. They allow light to both enter a diamond and reflect off its surface at different angles, creating the wonderful play of colour. The table below shows all the facets on a round brilliant cut diamond. A round brilliant has 58 facets (or 57 if there is no culet).
		Depth  is the height of a diamond from the culet to the table. The depth is measured in millimetres.
		Crown  angle is the angle at which a diamond's bezel facets intersect the girdle plane. The gentle slopes of the facets that surround the table help create the dispersion, or fire, in a diamond. White light entering the gem at the different angles in broken up into a prism of colours inside. The crown angle also helps to enhance the brilliance of a diamond.
		Culet  is a tiny flat facet that diamond cutters sometimes add at the bottom of a diamond's pavilion. Its purpose is to protect the tip of the pavilion from being chipped or damaged. Large or extremely large culets were common in diamonds in early 1900s, such as the Old European or Old Mine Cut. Most modern shapes have either no culet at all, or a very small culet.
