Invented in the early 20th century by the Asscher Brothers of Holland,the Asscher cut features a square shape with a flat table (top surface),many small step cuts along the top edges,and longer facets underneath for a Hall of Mirrors effect. Like the Cushion cut,the Asscher cut has an open culet (the bottom of the gemstone) and a facet plan that draws the eye into the gemstone and gives it depth. This is a highly unusual design,often favored by individuals with a more modern sense of style.
