A gemstone includes a crown, a pavilion, and a girdle disposed between the crown and the pavilion. The surface of the gemstone is generally divided into a number of groups of interlocking facets disposed at a variety of angles. The groups of facets comprising the surface of the crown generally include star facets, upper main crown facets, upper intermediate crown facets, lower main crown facets, lower intermediate crown facets, and upper girdle facets. The upper girdle facets generally abut an upper edge of the girdle. The groups of facets comprising the surface of the pavilion include culet-adjacent facets, lower candle facets, lower main pavilion facets, upper candle facets, upper main pavilion facets, and lower girdle facets. The lower girdle facets generally abut a lower edge of the girdle.

A patterned diamond and methods of making such patterned diamond are disclosed. The patterned diamond may include: a single crystal diamond or a polycrystal diamond; and a metallic pattern embedded in the single crystal diamond or the polycrystal diamond such that, the single crystal diamond or the polycrystal diamond encapsulates the metallic pattern from at least 4 sides. The disclosed method may include providing a first portion of a single crystal diamond or a polycrystal diamond; introducing a metallic pattern to at least one surface of the first portion of the single crystal or a first portion of the polycrystal diamond; and growing, using a CVD process or HTHP process, a second portion of the single crystal diamond or the second portion of the polycrystal diamond on the first portion, such that the single crystal diamond or the polycrystal diamond at least partially encapsulates the metallic pattern.

The invention relates to a diamond-based gem. The diamond-based gem may include, at least one first portion comprising one of: a single crystal diamond and a transparent polycrystal diamond; and at least one second portion comprising opaque polycrystal diamond. Further are disclosed several methods for manufacturing such a diamond-based gem.

A sparkling, oblong-shaped precious stone, such as an emerald or cushion cut diamond is formed by a planar table facet, a girdle, two pairs of long crown facets located between the table facet and the girdle, and the two pairs of long pavilion facets located between the base of the stone and the girdle.

An ornamental device includes: diamonds disposed on a single support element in a specific physical arrangement, all the diamonds in the specific physical arrangement having a blue fluorescent equal to or stronger than strong blue, wherein all the diamonds in the specific physical arrangement shining clear under a visible light, and shining blue under ultraviolet radiation keeping the specific physical arrangement distinguished from a group of diamonds in the specific physical arrangement, the group of diamonds comprising a mixture of a diamond or diamonds having a blue fluorescence equal to or stronger than strong blue and a diamonds or diamonds not having a blue fluorescent equal to or stronger than strong blue.

A method for manufacturing a jewel of the polycrystalline type, in particular for a timepiece, the jewel including, for example, poly-ruby of the type al2O3Cr or Zirconia of the type ZrO2, the method including a first step of producing a precursor, and a second step of pressing the precursor in order to form a body, the pressing being carried out using a pressing device provided with an upper die and a lower die defining a pressing space in which the precursor is disposed, the device being provided with a wire passing through at least part of the lower die to open out into the pressing space, the lower die being capable of sliding about the wire, the pressing taking place by bringing the lower die and the upper die closer to one another to form a body comprising a bottom face provided with a hole.

A method for manufacturing a jewel for a timepiece, the jewel including, for example, poly-ruby of the Al2O3Cr type or Zirconia of the ZrO2 type, including first producing a precursor and a then pressing the precursor in order to form a body, the pressing being carried out using a pressing device provided with an upper die and a lower die defining a pressing space wherein the precursor is disposed, the upper die including a concave portion of oblong shape, the device having a wire at least partially traversing the lower die to open into the pressing space, the lower die being able to slide around the wire, the pressing being carried out by bringing the lower die and the upper die closer together to form a body including an upper face provided with a dome and a lower face provided with a hole extending at least partially into the dome.
