For some bizarre reason, I really wanted a design that looked like a strawberry. So, I wrote one, based on the appearance of a strawberry I was in the middle of eating. I may have gone a bit overboard with facets. Works in materials from bytownite to GGG (RI = 1.56 - 2.03), but I prefer it in bytownite or yellow sunstone. Suggested length = 15-20 mm
