Antwerp Diamond Cutter Introducing New Diamond Shape.
Antwerp Diamond manufacturer Michielsen Manufacturing & Co. has introduced a new diamond cut trademarked as the Centenaire cut.
This round diamond shape has 100 facets as opposed to the standard 58 facets on the traditional round diamond shape which is the most popular shape to get engaged in.
Michielsen claims that its special cut will show a higher color and significantly more dispersion than a 58 facet round diamond.
Centenaire diamonds come with an IGI certificate from 0.30-carats on up.
OK, just what we needed, another fancy gazillion facets diamond!
Here's a fast quiz for you, Class:

Well, it's very easy to give bad critics to people who make precious diamonds and are really skilled ! did you ever really saw a Centenaire ? I don't think so, because, if you would, you wouldn't tell such a nonsense ! The centenaire is uniek !!! it plays with the light in the diamond, much and much more beautiful than a 57 facet diamond !
