Step Cut
The step cut or stepped cut is most famously employed with emeralds, and is often known simply as the "emerald cut".
The step's strong, angular forms make a shape which is more resistant to damage than other cuts, making it ideal for emeralds, which are brittle and easily damaged.

I am super happy with ALL three of my first-time purchases from you. I am hard to please so this is big news! All three pieces exceeded my expectations in their quality and the care that was given to the pieces.
