Abstract

Method for determining a cut for a gemstone, comprising selecting a generic shape for the cut; selecting a plurality of cut designs of a group of cut designs having the selected generic shape; simulating a number of optical metrics for the plurality of cut designs using simulation models having modeling coefficients; selecting one or more cut designs of the plurality of cut designs based on the simulated optical metrics; varying the geometry parameters for each selected cut design within a range, simulating a number of optical metrics for said range of geometry parameters, and determining an optimized cut design having optimized geometry parameters based on the simulated number of optical metrics for said range; cutting and polishing of the gemstone using the optimized cut design having the optimized geometry parameters; analyzing the visual appearance of the polished gemstone; changing or adapting the simulation models and/or the modeling coefficients thereof and/or the range for varying the geometry parameters and/or a cut design of the plurality of cut designs, and/or adding one or more new cut designs to the group of cut designs, on the basis of the analysis of the visual appearance.
