Facets of Fire Expands to Include Pear, Marquise Diamonds
The company brings its nanotechnology to two new fancy cuts for diamonds that feature its signature color and brilliance.
Along with 58 facets cut into each diamond, Facets of Fire etches hundreds of thousands of invisible nano-prisms onto the pavilion of the polished stones to create facets within facets.
New York—Facets of Fire is expanding its offerings to now include pear and marquise diamonds.
The company will offer loose diamonds in these fancy cuts from 0.25 carats to more than 10 carats.
Facets of Fire already carries round-, princess-, oval-, radiant-, and cushion-shaped diamonds in its selection of diamond engagement rings and bands, necklaces, bracelets, and earrings.
All shapes feature Facets of Fire’s nanotechnology, which causes each stone to be seven times brighter with more sparkle, fire, and brilliance, said the company.
Along with 58 facets, each diamond is etched with hundreds of thousands of nano-prisms onto the pavilion of the polished stone to create facets within facets.
The nano-prism placement is customized strategically for every stone to ensure maximum light return.
“Facets of Fire’s commitment to creating more beautiful natural diamonds is on full display with each new shape we create,” said Glenn Markman, CEO of Facets of Fire.
“It can take months to perfect the placement of the nano-prisms, but when we finally get it right, the result is unmatched.”
