Το κόψιμο Carre μοιάζει τόσο με το Asscher που συχνά οι άνθρωποι μπερδεύουν και τα δύο. Ωστόσο, υπάρχουν σαφείς διαφορές στην εμφάνιση αυτών των δύο διαμαντιών. Και αυτές οι διαφορές προέρχονται από το γεγονός ότι το Carre έχει γωνίες ενώ το Asscher όχι.
asscher vs carre cut side by side
The Asscher cut is square in shape but has truncated corners. This effectively makes it an eight-sided figure with short edges. Λόγω αυτού, the Asscher cut has a windmill-like appearance when viewed from the top, with the facets of the four shorter edges contrasted against the facets of the longer edges.
The Carre cut only has four sides, which gives it a clear X shape across the center of the diamond. The four sides meet in the middle in a sharp point and the cut has an overall clean, clear appearance with a square pattern.
Ετσι, while at first glance these two cuts look similar, they are in fact, different because of the number of corners they have.
