Critical angle is the angle at which light is reflected into the stone rather than passed out. But there another problem. Too steep of an angle leads to light refracting out.
In ordinary gem we want light to bounce and return to the eye. But in the rose cut with opposite table and culet, light goes straight through like a window.
Everything interesting will happen in the facets.
Let's model it. [4/*]
