Space warp

Any cut is an attempt to reveal the inner beauty of a gemstone. In traditional styles, the facets are flat and the light reflects strictly according to the rules of planimetry. More interesting are fantasy cuts, such as the concave cut. These gemstones have inwardly curved surfaces that create a chain of reflections, leading to unexpected visual effects. Sometimes, you can see flowers blooming, tropical leaves fluttering, or snowflakes sparkling. It seems as if the laws of non-linear geometry interfere with the way light plays on these surfaces. A concave-cut gemstone can either become a work of art itself or inspire a conceptual jewelry design.
