I would like to cut full size replicas of the famous diamonds in CZ. Does anyone know were I can get the designs in print form or as a GemCad file?

I have or had a book that covered most of the famous diamond. I will see if I can locate it.
Also, try:
www.usfacetersguild.org
www.faceters.com

I haven't used them for some time. They should still be active.

Glen Vargas some years ago published three volumes of faceting diagrams. I don't know if you could find them on line or not.

Hi,

Try this site.

I found the Hope Diamond and the Taylor-Burton Diamond, there may be more.

Hi Ronald,

Here is another that may answer your query.

Texas Faceters' Guild Famous Diamond Replicas
2007 Edition
Edited by Hollis Thompson
Loose leaf, 8.5" x 11", 118 pages, copyright 2007.

Presumably you could buy it from the guild concerned.

John
