Rose–di′a-mond.

The rose-diamond is flat below, and its upper surface has 24 triangular facets. The center has a hexagonal arrangement, and the base of each triangle is joined to another whose apex touches the margin. The intervening spaces are cut into 12 facets in two zones. The upper or projecting is the crown; the lower portion the teeth. See Dia-Mond.
