Talla escalonadaStep cut
Peldaños de luz, no chispas.Steps of light, not sparks.
En la talla escalonada, las facetas son largas y trapezoidales y rodean la tabla como los peldaños de una escalera.1 Como son pocas y grandes, el diamante centellea menos, pero crea un efecto de salón de espejos (hall of mirrors): destellos amplios y serenos en lugar de chispas.15
In a step cut, the facets are long and trapezoid-shaped, set around the table like the steps of a staircase.1 There are fewer of them and they’re larger, so the diamond sparkles less, but it creates a hall-of-mirrors effect: broad, calm flashes rather than pinpoint sparkle.15
Esas facetas grandes y abiertas tienen un precio: las inclusiones y el color se notan más que en una talla brillante.145 Por eso no la juzgamos con la vara de un redondo.
That crispness comes at a price: with large, open facets, inclusions and color show more than in a brilliant cut.145 That’s why we don’t judge it by the standards of a round.
