Dalessi (25 carat)


This is much easier than it looks; you don't need a flaw for this cut, so most gems are suitable.

Using disc 1, cut a cube whose sides are 4 layers deep (if you get a perfect cube and have a Fine Balance, it should now be 64 carat). The cube does not have to be perfect at all; if it is not, one side is hopefully flawless - move this one to the bottom. Now cut with disc 3 until the side you are cutting aligns with the bottom corner. Rotate the gem 2 times on the Z axis, and cut with disc 3 again. Cut this side 2 more times than the opposite side, and you have a Dalessi cut.
