Vintage & Antique Cuts
Old Mine and other antique cuts were designed to capture and return candlelight. Their softly rounded corners, higher crowns, smaller tables, and broader facets create a diamond that glows with depth and warmth rather than the sharper brilliance of modern cuts. A gentle, romantic light that evokes a sense of warmth, individuality, and quiet connection to another era.
