70% Light Return
Angles for R.I. = 1.54
41 facets + 4 facets on girdle = 45
4-fold symmetry
96 index
L/W = 1.000 T/W = 0.400 T/L = 0.400
P/W = 0.488 C/W = 0.208
H/W = (P+C)/W+0.02 = 0.717
P/H = 0.681 C/H = 0.291
Vol./W^3 = 0.319

Addition # 3 - This design might look a little confusing to cut at first, but it is really pretty simple. It has a nice random large flash, I like to cut it in Ametrine to help enforce that look, any material works, 1-12cts. Cut in refractive indexes 1.54 to 1.76 (76%) with no changes.

Random - Cosine - ISO
