The faceting design “Trencadis” is inspired by the mosaic technique with the same name, widely used by Antonio Gaudi in his emblematic modernist buildings that adorn the streets of Barcelona, becoming one of the symbols of this beautiful city.
The idea of this cut was born as a result of a collaboration between Egor Gavrilenko and Chesco Días, in search of gems with special cuts for Chesco’s “Barcelona” jewelry collection. The faceting design combines polished facets and frosted edges on the crown of the gem. The facets have irregular shapes, resembling the broken tiles used in this mosaic technique. When the gem is seen in motion, the polished facets change their color and shine, imitating the polychromatic effect of mosaics made with trencadis.
