Large antique mine cut diamond earrings set in new settings
The mine cut diamond is the first true brilliant cut diamond that was developed at the start of the 18th century. This wonderful cut has fifty eight facets like a modern round brilliant cut diamond, but different angles as weight retention was paramount when cutting diamonds all those years ago, and this often resulted in the mine cut diamond having a gorgeous squarish shape to them giving rise to the term “cushion cut diamonds”.
By far on of the most sought after cut of diamonds today, even though modern diamond houses in Antwerp and India are cutting modern mine cut diamonds, the diamonds set into these earrings are all genuine antique diamonds from a bygone era.
The diamonds measure 1.50 carats and 1.56 carats bringing the total to an impressive 3.06 carats and they are both L in colour and Vs and Si in clarity. Do not think for a moment that these diamonds look yellow as they face up so incredibly bright that they will have you instantly falling in love with them.
Set into a modern handmade platinum setting with handmade butterflies all made by our Master Jeweller, this setting really showcases the diamonds to their maximum and looks spectacular on the ear.
These earrings are just perfect and combine old and new and are destined to not always be admired every time that they are worn, but are sure to become a family heirloom.
