Antique Cut Diamonds - Old European Cut VS Round Brilliant

Antique Cut Diamonds, including Old Mine and Old European Cut Diamonds, are a part of our history. The Antique Cut represents a time when all diamonds where cut by hand and the beauty of the diamond was in the hands of the cutter. Today, we have machines helping us cut round brilliant diamonds to Ideal proportions. This makes all diamonds look the same and takes some of the romance out of the whole thing.

People buy antique diamonds for a variety of reasons. Some have antique jewelry which needs replacement stones, others just love the look of an antique diamond. You can't replace an old cut diamond in an estate piece with a new round brilliant, it just won't look right. One option is to find a replacement diamond which could take some time to find, the other option is to buy an antique cut CZ.

You can also buy antique cut CZs and modern cut CZs to compare the different cuts. Then you will have a better idea of which diamond you prefer.
