My Girl


The My Girl Diamond, a feminine marvel, achieves unmatched brilliance owing to its patented square cut with unique angles. 




Unveiling the My Girl Diamond’s patent cuts—A flawless square design with precisely calculated angles ensures continuous dispersion of light, offering unrivalled scintillation. This cut, characterised by its symmetry, adds a delicate yet bold statement to any piece it adorns.









"Brilliant 10"


A revolutionary cut that outshines the conventional brilliant cut by introducing additional facets, culminating in enhanced light return.






The Brilliant 10 diamond cut takes up to three times longer to cut, and can only be polished by a handful of skilled master diamond polishers. The essence of this patented cut is its ability to reflect light: the light that enters the diamond is reflected back through the table with little to no light leakage – a world first in the diamond industry, and the Brilliant 10 diamond’s most unique characteristic.


Tested at an international, independent diamond grading laboratory, the Shimansky signature Brilliant 10 diamond cut scored up to 25% more brilliance when compared to a round brilliant cut diamond. This means that the Brilliant 10 diamond delivers the ultimate sparkle, increasing not only its value, but most importantly, its beauty. 


The Brilliant 10 goes a step beyond traditional round cuts to provide ten additional facets, ensuring unprecedented fire and scintillation.




The Genesis of a Masterpiece: From Rough Stone to Radiant Gem


Before a diamond elicits admiration in the finished jewellery piece, it begins as a rough stone, a testament to nature’s wonder. The journey from obscurity to opulence is punctuated with precision, expertise, and innovative brilliance.





Precision: The Blueprint of Perfection


The hallmark lies in extraordinary dedication to exactness at every stage of the cutting and polishing process:


- Initial Planning: The journey begins with extensive planning and analysis using advanced imaging technology to assess the potential of the rough diamond. Experts at Shimansky meticulously map every fissure, inclusion, and edge to inform decisions ensuring the optimal use of the stone.


- Precise Cutting: The actual cutting commences with a diamond saw or laser. Every cut is purposefully made to maximise the diamond’s brilliance and fire. The symmetry, proportion, and angles are crucial, dramatically impacting the light performance of the final gem.


- Expert Positioning: Securing the stone in the perfect position ensures that each facet aligns to exact specifications, creating harmony within and optimal light reflection.


Innovation: Bridging Tradition with Technology


The continuation of groundbreaking techniques embodies the contemporary ethos of luxury while adhering to traditions:


To integrate and pioneering technologies like laser sawing and computer-aided design (CAD) programming to enhance precision. These advancements ensure that the diamonds carry distinctive cuts like the patented My Girl Diamond or Brilliant 10, setting new standards of light dispersion and reflection.




Celebrating A Symphony of Light.


The deliberate nuances ingrained within cutting and polishing diamonds echo my relentless pursuit of excellence. The journey from rough stone to an absolute masterpiece teems with dedication, unmistakable precision, and ingenious design that resonates with both jewellery connoisseurs and industry professionals.


Each diamond reverberates with stories of craftsmanship enriched with an unyielding commitment to perfection. Embark on this radiant journey, where every facet is curated to epitomise elegance, leaving an indelible mark of brilliance in the realm of luxury jewellery.
