Antique Victorian Elongated Old Mine Cut Cushion Natural Diamond Ring in 14k YG
Embrace the warm, romantic glow of the Victorian era with this beautiful Antique Victorian Old Mine Cut Diamond Solitaire Ring. This elegant piece is characterized by its high-quality antique diamond and a classic, period-appropriate setting.
The Exceptional Center Stone
The focal point is a genuine Old Mine Cut (OMC) natural earth mined diamond. These antique cuts are prized for:
Unique Fire: They produce a deep, chunky sparkle, often described as a "pool of light," which is distinct from the needle-like brilliance of modern cuts.
Shape: While appearing round face-up, OMCs typically have a cushion-like girdle (rounded-square) and a high crown and deep pavilion, giving them wonderful dimensionality.
Elongated Setting: The setting appears slightly elongated, which enhances the stone's perceived size and antique character.
The Classic Buttercup Setting
The diamond is securely cradled in an ornate buttercup or daisy setting. This beloved Victorian style features:
Scalloped Prongs: Multiple scalloped prongs (or petals) surround the diamond, holding it firmly while creating a beautiful, floral-like halo effect that maximizes the stone's visibility.
Raised Profile: The high, open profile of the setting allows light to enter the antique diamond from every angle, making it truly sparkle without catching on everything.
The 14k Yellow Gold Band
The ring is crafted entirely in rich 14k Yellow Gold. The metal's warm color is the perfect complement to the romantic quality of the antique diamond. The band is smooth and polished, leading gracefully up to the stunning buttercup head. The ring weighs 2.34g.
