Magen David Diamond©

The Magen David Diamond©

 

In celebration of the 2012 Jewish High Holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur we released the use of the Magen David Diamond Cut© as our gift to the global diamond industry.  Any suitably equipped manufacturer is now welcome to cut, polish, market and sell this unique diamond so long as they agree to make a charitable donation of a 1% royalty to Magen David Adom.

Magen David or The Shield of David (also called the Star of David) is widely known as the symbol of Judaism.  It is affixed to the pavilion of this diamond so that its reflection is clearly visible within the table as well as throughout the entire stone.

It emerged from the application of state-of-the-art diamond modeling techniques and modern cut performance analysis to enhancing the design of traditional diamond shapes.  Even when perfectly cut, the standard shapes of diamonds are asymmetrical.  The crowns of these diamonds have stars, mains and girdle facets.  The pavilions have mains, pavilion girdle facets and a six pointed star pattern as a third and fourth tier faceting arrangement.
