We're thrilled to bring you this stunning and highly sought after collector's quality Victorian antique engagement ring. It boasts a magnificent old mine cushion weighing an impressive 4.20 carats. Surrounded by a gorgeous halo of old mine cut diamonds. Crafted in 18k yellow gold with English marks for gold.
Old mine cushion cut diamonds, especially larger ones like 4 carats with very high crowns and a chunky appearance, are truly rare and distinctive. Their unique characteristics, such as their thick girdles and high crowns, contribute to their distinct look of thickness. These diamonds were cut several centuries ago, during the time when modern diamond cutting techniques were still evolving. As a result, they possess a deep pavilion, small table, and large culet, giving them a unique and antique look. The combination of their size, high crown, and chunky facets creates a captivating play of light and gives them a remarkable presence. It's their rarity, historical significance, and one-of-a-kind appearance that make old mine cushion cut diamonds so highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts alike.
