DEPTH PERCENTAGE:
The height of a gemstone, measured from the culet to the table, divided by the width of the gemstone.
Depth Percentage: On a diamond grading report, you will see two different measurements of the diamond''s depth-the actual depth in millimeters (under "measurements" at the top of the report) and the depth percentage, ...
Depth Percentage (%): There are two different measurements of a diamond's depth - the actual depth in millimeters and the depth percentage, which expresses how deep the diamond is in comparison to how wide it is.
Depth Percentage
The depth of the diamond divided by the average width expressed as a percentage.
Diamond ...
Depth Percentage - The fire and brilliance of a diamond is based on the depth percentage and table percentage, which equals diamond height divided by diamond width.
Depth Percentage
A gems depth percentage is a measure of the gem's depth divided by the average width, or diameter, at the girdle.
Diameter ...
Depth percentage: The depth of a polished diamond measured from the table (top) to the culet (bottom), expressed as a percentage of the stone's diameter at the girdle, an important factor in grading proportions.
Depth Percentage
The depth percentage, which expresses how deep the gemstone is in comparison to how wide it is. In other words, the depth of the gemstone is divided by the average width.
depth percentage
The ratio of a diamond's depth to its width
diameter
The measure of a diamond's girdle, or its widest perimeter ...
Total Depth Percentage: A measure of the depth of a diamond from the table to the culet divided by the average diameter, (width), of the girdle. The depth percentage of most diamonds is between 53 and 63 percent.
Depth Percentage - 50%
Table Percentage - 65%
Girdle Thickness and Finish - Excellent
A base price table for an ideal Standard Brilliant cut diamond of this color and clarity indicates a (hypothetical) price of $5,000/carat.
Depth Percentage: Typically measured in millimeters, depth percentage refers to the ratio of depth (culet to table) to diameter. Each cut has a different ideal depth percentage.
Depth percentage
Ratio which refers how deep the diamond is as compared to its width. An important factor for measuring diamond brilliance and value.
Diamond gauge ...
Depth percentage: In attempting to quantify a gem's proportions, reference is often made to depth percentage. This is calculated by taking the depth and dividing it by the girdle diameter (or average diameter, in the case of non-round stones).
Depth percentage - The measurement of a gemstone's depth (top to bottom) in relation to its diameter (width of girdle).
depth percentage
On a round brilliant diamond, the depth percentage is determined by measuring the distance from the table to culet (in mm) and dividing it by the average girdle diameter (in mm).
diamond ...
TOTAL DEPTH PERCENTAGE
The Total Depth Percentage is the depth of a diamond, from the table to the culet, divided by the average diameter or width of the girdle. The depth of most diamonds is between 53 and 63 percent.
TOURBILLON ...
Depth percentage - a ratio between the diameter of the stone and the total depth of the stone.
Dichroism - The ability of doubly refactive materials to transmit different colors down different axes.
Not only are the angles important, but depth percentage and table percentage are also key factors that contribute to the quality of a diamond's cut. Depth percentage refers to the depth of the diamond divided by its diameter.
Depth Percentage: 58-69%
Table: 58-69%
Always be sure to check the length and width of the diamond prior to purchasing. The traditionally accepted ratio for emerald cut diamonds is 1.5:1 to 1.
Round diamonds that are perfectly proportioned (having depth percentages and table percentages that some people feel produce a "perfect" balance of fire and brilliance).
Loose Princess cut diamonds with larger total depth percentages is much smaller in length and width than lower depth stones.

Princess Cut Engagement Ring Buying Guide ...
The depth percentage of a round diamond should range between 58 to 63 percent and the table percentage should range between 55 to 64 percent.
If you got a Table Percentage that was close to 60% and a Depth Percentage that was close to 60% you'd normally get a pretty good looking Diamond. Normally! This was the case and this is what we'd tell customers for years.
Very Good Cut
Diamonds cut to fit very strict requirements for depth percentage and table percentage. These outstanding proportions maximize fire and brilliance in the diamond.
Depth
Depth refers to the height of the diamond and is often expressed as depth percentage indicating the depth relative to the girdle diameter.
Dial
The face of a watch.
Describes the cutting quality relative to the Table Percentage, Depth Percentage, Girdle Percentage, Crown and Pavilion angles and symmetry.
Radiant Cut ...
The proportion diagram shows the diamond's girdle size, culet size, table and depth percentages, as well as other measurements, such as the crown and pavillion angles.
In essence, the cut should display the gem’s beauty to best advantage, while not presenting setting or durability problems. If a gem is beautifully cut, things such as depth percentage or length-to-width ratio matter not a bit.
For that reason two diamonds of the same carat weight may appear to be different sizes to the naked eye depending on how deeply they've been cut. Depth Percentage is one of most important aspects in determining the final "beauty" of a diamond.
points from one edge of the girdle to the edge 180 degrees with a Leveridge gauge or other millimeter gauge. Most diamonds will be at least slightly out of round so these two numbers are significant for determining roundness and depth percentage.
For example, if the table percentage falls within Ideal, but the depth percentage is in the Very Good range, then the diamond is classified as Very Good. The table takes into account the varying proportions for different shapes.
