Place the diamond table face up, visually measure the ratio of the image width of the pavilion main facet at the edge of the table to the image width of the main facet edge of the crown.
”
The crown angle is the angle between the main facet of the crown and the plane. There are two commonly used visual methods.
1. The main facet image method of the pavilion (also known as the front view method) Place the diamond table face up, visually measure the ratio of the image width of the pavilion main facet at the edge of the table to the image width of the main facet edge of the crown.
The specific steps are:
Face up to the diamond, through the table, observe the width of the position where the image of a pavilion main facet is truncated by the edge of the table (blue line segment B), and then observe the intersection of the image of the same pavilion main facet and the edge of the crown main facet Width at position (red line segment A);
The smaller the crown angle, the smaller the difference between A and B, and the more continuous the image of the main facet of the pavilion; The larger the crown angle, the greater the difference between A and B, and the more discontinuous the image of the pavilion main facet.
Note 1: The premise of the description in the above observation is that the table width ratio of the diamond is 60%. Other ratios are listed in the table below.
Note 2: Due to symmetry defects, the angles of the main facets of each crown may be different, so it is necessary to observe and estimate the values of several crown angles, and take the average value.
2. Crown angle side view method Clamp the diamond girdle with a clip, set the tweezers to a 90° angle with the girdle, and then visually measure the crown angle

Z-Axis System: The Key to Stable Production of MPCVD Diamonds
Microwave Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition is the mainstream method for producing high-quality diamonds in the industry. When the equipment is running, it first pumps the reaction chamber into a vacuum state to strictly ensure the chamber is fully sealed and airtight. Then, the microwave device releases energy, and special mixed reaction gases are fed into the chamber. Under the action of energy, a stable plasma area is formed. These highly active plasmas provide stable heat and reaction conditi

CVD Diamond Clarity: How to Avoid Inclusions That Affect Jewelry Value
After selecting a loose diamond, the setting not only determines the diamond’s security but also directly affects its perceived size. With diamonds of the same weight, choosing the right setting design can effortlessly create the surprise of “small carats making a big impact,” saving on your budget while enhancing the diamond’s quality. Among these, pavé and prong settings are the two most classic and effective ways to make a diamond appear larger. Paired with specialized designs that maximize t
