I was looking at my Heart of Darkness design, and realized that I wanted another absurdly time-consuming design with lots of small facets. So, I wrote this trillion, and named it with another literary reference. Written for sapphire, but works in materials from quartz to rutile (RI = 1.54 - 2.62) with no changes. Suggested size = 10-15 mm
