3D model and faceting diagram · 73 facets · 8.15 x 8.15 mm

DG-Anteros is a 73-facet round brilliant re-solved for moissanite. It keeps the T73's architecture and 53% table, but it eases the crown and shifts the pavilion cone. This is because moissanite bends light more strongly than diamond, the stone that the 1919 proportions were calculated for.

## About the DG-Anteros Cut

DG-Anteros is a 73-facet round brilliant re-solved for moissanite. It keeps the T73's architecture and 53% table, but it eases the crown and shifts the pavilion cone. This is because moissanite bends light more strongly than diamond, the stone that the 1919 proportions were calculated for.

In moissanite it forms crisp arrows face-up and eight clean hearts face-down. A round with diamond proportions does not. It is matched to its material, not better in general: in diamond its arrows turn dark and its hearts flood. The comparison is on the gemstones page.

## Why DG-Anteros: a round cut for moissanite

Most moissanite is cut to diamond proportions. But moissanite bends light more strongly than diamond: its refractive index is about 2.65, and diamond's is 2.42. So angles calculated for diamond send its light back at the wrong angles. The patterns that make a well-cut round special break up: eight crisp arrows face-up and eight hearts face-down.

DG-Anteros keeps the T73's 73 facets and 53% table and re-solves the crown and pavilion for moissanite. Here is the difference, in both stones, through a light-return scope and a Hearts & Arrows viewer.

**T73 in diamond.** Crisp arrows and crisp hearts: the proportions were worked out for diamond.

**T73 in moissanite.** Both patterns break up. The same angles bend moissanite's light too far.

**DG-Anteros in diamond.** The arrows go dark and the hearts flood with white: wrong stone for this cut.

**DG-Anteros in moissanite.** Crisp arrows and eight clean hearts: the cut it was drawn for.

Direct Indirect Contrast Leak. Face-up, the way a light-return scope shows a stone.

White: light from the viewer's white disk, which draws the arrows and hearts. Red: light from the red reflector. Black: the lens port, or light that never comes back.

We compute all eight panels per instrument from the cut files themselves, with the same rules for every stone. The Hearts & Arrows viewer has a 2.5° lens hole, a white disk to 13.5° and a red reflector to 90°.

### What this means for you

- **Cutting or selling moissanite:** DG-Anteros is the only cut in our catalog that shows both arrows and hearts in moissanite. A round with diamond proportions, like the T73, loses both.
- **Cutting diamond:** choose the T73 instead. DG-Anteros is matched to moissanite, not better in general. In diamond, its arrows go dark and its hearts flood.
- **Nothing new to learn at the machine:** it has the same 73-facet plan on a 96 index gear as the T73. Only the angles change.
- **Everything you need:** the GemCad design, the tier table and a printable diagram, plus the 3D model in six formats for settings and renders.

## How the DG-Anteros Cut performs in seven gemstones

**The DG-Anteros Cut was drawn for moissanite, and it performs best in that stone. Its brilliance and fire together are highest there: 92 for brilliance and 91 for fire.** Its brilliance peaks in ruby and sapphire, at 97. In diamond it scores 95 for brilliance and 74 for fire, against 93 and 78 for the T73 benchmark. Its scintillation, 80, comes from its pattern of facets, so it is the same in every stone.

Brilliance is the share of face-up light that the stone returns. Fire is the share of that light that splits into color. Both come from our face-up light census. Scintillation is the sparkle that the facets give as the stone moves, and we read it from its facets. They are the same figures as the [Cut Performance Wheel](https://digitalgemology.com/tools/cut-performance-wheel?cut=dg-anteros&stone=moissanite), where you can compare the DG-Anteros Cut with any other cut.

Their head-on figures are in the table below.

### Head-on reflection, critical angle and weight in each stone

The same geometry behaves differently in every material. Light that meets a pavilion facet at less than the critical angle of the stone does not reflect. It passes straight out of the back and shows face-up as a window. For each stone, we measured how much of the pavilion of this model, seen face-down, is steeper than that angle. We also measured what the model weighs at its reference size. The pavilion mains of this design sit at 40.1°. A round design needs at least 40.4° in amethyst for head-on light to reflect off both sides of the pavilion and leave through the table. So it is worth making the mains steeper for amethyst.

Head-on light in amethyst: a steep facet reflects it, a shallow facet lets it out of the back.

## DG-Anteros Cut: questions

### What files come with the DG-Anteros Cut 3D model?

Six formats. STEP is the exact faceted solid for CAD, and 3DM is for Rhino. STL and OBJ are meshes. FBX is for Blender, 3ds Max, Maya, Cinema 4D, Unity and Unreal. GLB is for the web and AR. All are in millimeters at real-world scale, with 73 planar facets.

### Is there a faceting diagram for the DG-Anteros Cut?

Yes. The cutting files contain a GemCad .asc design (57 + 16 girdles = 73 facets, 96 index, 8-fold mirror-image symmetry) and a printable faceting diagram. They also contain a tier table in CSV, with the angles, indices and cutting order.

### Does the DG-Anteros Cut work in sapphire, emerald or amethyst?

We measured the pavilion of this model against the critical angle of each stone. In Diamond, Moissanite, Cubic Zirconia, Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, the whole pavilion reflects head-on light. In Amethyst, part of the pavilion lets light out of the back, so we advise a steeper pavilion. The pavilion mains of this design sit at 40.1°. A round design needs at least 40.4° in amethyst for head-on light to reflect off both sides of the pavilion and leave through the table. So it is worth making the mains steeper for amethyst.

### How accurate is the DG-Anteros Cut cutting file?

We check it facet by facet against the 3D model that it was written from. Every crown and pavilion facet within under 0.001° of the 3D model (average under 0.001°). The angles are the ones you set on the machine. The 3D model is the same stone that you render or set.

### How big is the DG-Anteros Cut model, and what does it weigh?

The model measures 8.15 x 8.15 x 4.84 mm, which is 1.91 ct in diamond. At the same size, it weighs 1.75 ct in moissanite, 3.15 ct in cubic zirconia, 2.17 ct in ruby, 2.17 ct in sapphire, 1.48 ct in emerald, 1.44 ct in amethyst. You can scale it uniformly to any size: the weight follows the cube of the size.

Twice the size holds eight times the material, so it weighs eight times as much.

### Can I 3D print or cast the DG-Anteros Cut model?

Yes. The mesh is watertight and manifold, with outward normals and no duplicate vertices, so it prints and casts without repair. Use the STEP file when you need the exact faceted solid in CAD.
