A diamond is generally considered to be antique if it is old enough to predate the modern brilliant cut diamond. Old miners cut and European cut diamonds are a simplified design similar to the brilliant cut diamond with much less sophistication and often feature a flat culet at the bottom point. We have Antique diamonds for sale in our Brisbane studio for collectors and buyer looking for genuine old diamonds.

Old European Cut Diamonds

The most popular antique diamond is the old European design as it’s design is clean and simple yet still very beautiful. Similar to the modern briliant these diamonds work best when they are above 1.5 carat to highlight their simplicity and show off their antique features. Classic traits of this cut are a lower colour, H-L, large culet and a girgle that has natural and uneven edges. Small size diamonds are also popular but less obvious and expensive than the larger diamonds.
