L/W = 1.026 T/W = 0.299 T/L = 0.291
P/W = 0.431 C/W = 0.188
H/W = (P+C)/W+0.02 = 0.639
P/H = 0.675 C/H = 0.294

Addition # 9 - This is quite interesting and not difficult to cut. It works well in any material. I like it in Garnets. Cut in refractive indexes 1.54 to 2.14 with no changes. This is a bright design and has a ton of sparkle.
