The brilliant

Every cut and every shape unfolds its own effect in the special glass. The round brilliant forms the basis of our collection because its cut reflects light from every perspective and brings out the magnifying effect of the glass body optimally.

Diamonds in Glass·5 min read·8 June 2026

A round brilliant consists of 57 or 58 precisely cut facets. Their interplay ensures that incoming light is reflected optimally and that brilliance, fire and scintillation arise. In the special glass this play of light unfolds an additional depth.

Why the round brilliant forms the basis

Emerald and baguette cuts are distinguished by large, clear facets and elegant reflections. The round brilliant, on the other hand, was designed to return as much light as possible to the viewer. In the special glass this creates a particularly intense brilliance, which is why it forms the basis of our collection.

Brilliance from every perspective

In the special glass the diamond remains visible from almost every angle. The round brilliant is particularly suited to this because its 57 facets take in and reflect incoming light from the most varied perspectives. This creates an even brilliance across 360°.

Why the brilliant

  • It reflects light from every perspective, evenly across 360°.
  • It makes full use of the magnifying effect of the glass body.
  • It is the basis to which size and colour are tuned.

Curated, not arbitrary

Every diamond is carefully selected according to the four quality criteria of carat, colour, clarity and cut. No single feature decides its effect but the harmonious interplay of all its properties. The natural value of the diamond is preserved, while the magnifying effect, with up to fivefold enlargement, impressively brings out its brilliance and character.

„The round brilliant cut is considered the benchmark for maximum brilliance.“

Frequently asked questions

Answered briefly

  • The round brilliant cut. It reflects light from every perspective and thereby unfolds the strongest, most even effect in the glass body.

  • Angular or flat cuts would have dead angles in the glass where the gathered light is not returned. The round brilliant has no such weak points.

  • Yes. Cut, size and colour are curated and tuned; the diamond itself stays real and untouched. Only its radiance is restaged in the glass.
