Antique Cuts

Many women are yearning for an engagement ring that is classic and beautiful but also different from all of her friends. I have seen a huge uptick in requests for antique diamond cuts like old mine cuts (antique cushions), old European cuts (antique rounds), and, of course my personal favorite, elongated antique cushions. *Swoon*

These antique diamonds may not sparkle like a modern round brilliant but they sure do make up for it in charm and elegance! When shopping for an antique diamond be aware that they are rarer and way harder to come by than a modern cut so you may have to sacrifice some color/clarity to get the antique diamond you want.
