The old mine cushion cut diamond is defined by its softly rounded outline, high crown, small table facet and polished culet. Developed during the 18th century, this cutting style followed the natural form of the rough stone and prioritised weight retention while increasing facet structure. These proportions give old mine cut diamonds their characteristic depth and strong fire. Our old mine cushion cut engagement rings feature our expertly curated diamonds, set into handcrafted designs using traditional techniques and championing these exceptional antique diamonds.
