It's safe to say the artist has a love of checkerboard cuts. The reflection pattern they give the gemstone is so very different and wonderfully eye catching. The design of this gem is called Fortitude by Arya Akhavan. Large pavilion faces flash the red colour up and out of the twinkling checkerboard crown. The play of red flash and mirrored polish is energetic.
