The “LV-Cut” Diamond: A Signature Shape of Modern Distinction

The “LV-Cut” Diamond: A Signature Shape of Modern Distinction

At TrueCut, we believe luxury is not just in carats, but in identity — in choosing a shape that stands for something. The so-called “LV-Cut” diamond (inspired by the idea of a house-specific proprietary cut) represents that concept: a diamond shape born out of creativity, precision and brand expression.

It is not just a shape; it is a statement — that your jewelry is crafted with originality, designed with intent, and priced with integrity.

💎 Design Ideas

(Note: The “LV Cut” refers to diamonds cut in a custom geometric or star-like pattern, similar in concept to Louis Vuitton’s Monogram Star cut — a six- or eight-pointed faceted shape designed for brilliance and brand symbolism.)

What Makes the LV-Cut Unique

Much like how some high-end maisons have introduced exclusive cuts of their own (for instance Louis Vuitton released the “Monogram Star” cut with 53 facets). 
The “LV-Cut” diamond is envisioned as a proprietary shape with the following features:

  • A distinctive facet pattern that creates a unique visual signature when seen from above — for example, star-points, negative space or a branded geometric motif.

  • Precision-cut symmetry and premium proportions, so the stone delivers outstanding brilliance and light return.

  • A design license to incorporate meaningful symbolism — for example six or eight points, a subtle logo outline, or structural light pathways.
    At TrueCut, if you were to develop your own “TrueCut Signature Cut”, you could highlight these same elements: custom geometry, master craftsmanship, and visual differentiation.

Why People Would Be Drawn to a Signature Cut Like This

  1. 🎯 Distinctiveness — It signals individuality. A diamond cut no one else uses feels special and personal.

  2. Visual identity — The shape becomes part of the jewelry’s story: a “Signature Diamond”.

  3. 💡 Brilliance meets design — When done well, the custom facets can enhance fire and sparkle while still showcasing uniqueness.

  4. 🔄 Value proposition — You can position it as exclusive but fairly priced: same diamond quality, unique shape, honest value.

  5. 📜 Collector appeal — For clients who are design-forward or want something beyond the mainstream shapes.

How to Choose a Signature-Cut Diamond (TrueCut’s Tips)

If you or your customers are evaluating a diamond in this shape, consider:

  • Facet pattern clarity: Does the star/point pattern look crisp and symmetrical?

  • Cut grade or light performance: Even custom cuts must exhibit strong brilliance — avoid stones that look “dead” or have dark zones.

  • Color & Clarity: As always, prioritise value — a G–H color and VS2 clarity often give excellent look while controlling cost.

  • Proportion & depth: Because the geometry is non-standard, ensure the depth and table percentages are in optimal ranges for that shape’s design.

  • Setting compatibility: Make sure the setting style enhances the shape — the signature shape should sit securely and visibly, not hidden or overwhelmed by metal.

  • Story & certification: Provide documentation or explanation of the cut’s origin, its design story, and why it is special — this builds perceived value.
