Adorable ring with five antique diamonds, knownas "old mine" diamonds, as described in the next paragraph. The center stone is the largest, flanked by two other diamonds on each side, in increments, for a total of 1 carat, estimated by a gemological laboratory. The color ranges from H to K, with SI clarity. The allure of diamonds from the first mines is unparalleled, so much so that the precious gems were used to create this piece in the 1960s, while the stones themselves date back to the late 19th century.
The structure is in 18-karat white gold.
🔬🔎The ring is accompanied by a gemological laboratory certificate which attests to its commercial value of € 2,400.00 - € 2,800.00 Gemologist IGI HRD
Why is this cut calledold mine cut or old mine ?
The number of facets (58) is the same as the brilliant cut but the era, provenance and proportions are different.
This very ancient cut has identified diamonds from Indian and Brazilian deposits since the second half of the 19th century before the African mines were discovered.
The old mine cut therefore generally dates back to the period before 1866-67.
The cut's proportions are characterized by the slightly square and beveled diamond. The crown is high, and with a good magnifying glass, the larger culet can be seen when looking at the diamond from above. For more information, clickhere .
