En sekskantdiamant er et 6-sidig geometrisk snitt som kommer i noen få varianter.
En variant av den sekskantede diamantslipingen er den strålende sekskanten. Her, diamanten har mange fasetter, strukturert på en lignende måte som briljantslipte diamanter. Denne typen sekskantede diamanter er veldig strålende med eksepsjonell lysytelse.
Another type of hexagon diamond is the step cut hexagon, like this stunning antique ring, which is very similar to the Asscher cut. This cut is characterized by longer, wider and open facets arranged in a parallel design. Step cut diamonds are not as brilliant as ‘brilliant’ cut diamonds, but their beauty lies in the contrast of light and dark patches and the hall of mirrors effect they produce.
The rose cut hexagon diamond, like this salt and pepper rose cut diamond hexagon ring, is also very popular, especially for vintage designs. The rose cut is an antique type of cut which has a flat base and a domed top. This type of cut has varying numbers of facets and generally makes the diamond look larger than it is. Imidlertid, it has little sparkle and the beauty of the rose cut lies in its unique look.
