What Are Old Mine Cut Diamonds?

An old mine cut diamond is an antique-inspired diamond style known for its broader facets, higher crown, deeper proportions and open cutlet. Its distinctive faceting creates larger flashes of light and a softer visual pattern than many modern brilliant cuts. Today, lab grown old mine cut diamonds recreate this distinctive faceting style as newly cut stones, giving shoppers a way to compare the antique character of the cut with modern diamond specifications.

For shoppers comparing specialist diamond styles, Old Mine Cut Diamonds are part of Ouros Jewels' Shop By Diamond Cuts selection, where you can explore a range of other diamond cutting styles.
