Old mine cut vs old European cut vs carré: how to tell them apart
The antique cushion: a squarish outline with rounded corners, a small table, a high crown and an open culet you can see face-up. Cut by hand before modern round brilliants.
The round antique cut that came before the modern brilliant: a small table, a high crown, a deep pavilion and an open culet, with broad flashes of light rather than fine sparkle.
A square step cut with straight edges and parallel facets, a classic antique and Art Deco look in a crisp square outline.
Renders are illustrative. Each diamond page shows its real photo, 360° video and GIA or IGI report.
