What is an Old European Cut Diamond?

Old European cut diamonds are hand-cut antique diamonds from the late 1800s to early 1900s, characterized by larger facets that create a distinctive "chunky" brilliance and romantic candlelight glow. Each stone is completely unique due to hand-cutting techniques, making them highly sought after by collectors and vintage jewelry enthusiasts. The repurposed antique diamond is sustainable and eco-friendly—no new mining required.
