What Is Old Cut Jewelry?

Old cut jewelry is jewelry set with diamonds cut in historic styles such as Old European Cut and Old Mine Cut. These diamonds typically have larger facets and an old-style cut that gives the jewelry its vintage look.

At Ouros Jewels, old cut jewelry is created with lab grown Old European Cut (OEC) and Old Mine Cut (OMC) diamonds, bringing these historic cutting styles into newly made engagement rings, wedding bands, earrings, bracelets, and necklaces.

Old Cut Diamond vs Brilliant Cut Diamond Jewelry

Old cut diamond jewelry is known for broader flashes of light and a softer, almost candlelit glow. OEC and OMC diamonds have larger, slightly uneven hand-cut-inspired facets that pair naturally with vintage inspired engagement rings, wedding bands, earrings, necklaces, and bracelets.

Brilliant cut diamond jewelry has a tighter, more symmetrical facet pattern designed for brighter, glitterier sparkle. The smaller, quicker flashes give the diamond the crisp look commonly seen in modern fine jewelry.

Ouros Jewels Old Cut Diamond Jewelry

Long before old cut diamonds returned to the spotlight through modern bridal trends and celebrity engagement rings, Old cut diamond jewelry had been part of Ouros Jewels’ exclusive jewelry designs and one of our specialties since 2019. Our approach is not limited to recreating antique-looking pieces. We pair the character of old cut lab grown diamonds with both vintage inspired details and cleaner modern design.

Each design is made in-house, with attention to the diamond’s proportions, setting style, metalwork, and how the finished jewelry will sit and wear. Customers can also customize an existing Ouros Jewels design or create an old cut jewelry piece from scratch, giving them more control over the diamond, setting, proportions, metal, and final design.
