Joseph Asscher, the founder of Royal Asscher, cut two of the top three largest diamonds in the world – the 3,106-carat Cullinan Diamond and the 995-carat Excelsior Diamond. The company is also widely known for inventing the Asscher Cut, “currently one of the diamond industry and trade’s most popular, generic fancy diamond cuts”, according to the company.
