das Feuer zur Geltung zu bringen

Hi Anna,
I'm certainly no gemstone expert, but from my quick reading of the diamond cut article in Wikpedia <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond_cut> I gleaned that the baguette cut 'accentuates a diamond's luster, whiteness, and clarity but downplays its fire.' After looking at the following links: http://tinyurl.com/374oxgz and http://tinyurl.com/395qtww , I realised that probably your text really does require the expert advice of a jeweller, for example, who might be able to explain why certain large stones are more fiery when baguette-cut. All I learned there was that baguette-cut diamonds need to be very clear, with no flaws. Still, it's a bit confusing ... clarity is not the same as scintillation (fire)? No problem with the pear or teardrop cut diamond, though, as this cut does seem to create more fire.
