Details
Glowing the warm gold-brown of cognac in candlelight, this old mine cut diamond weighs 3.41 carats and is
certified by GIA as Fancy Yellowish Brown in color and VVS2 in clarity, a pairing of rich natural color and
remarkable cleanliness that sets it apart from the ordinary white stone. Old mine cutting, the cushion-shaped style of
the Victorian era, was done entirely by hand to maximize weight and to bounce candlelight, and that is why the
stone shows a deep, many-faceted interior with broad, soft flashes rather than the tight sparkle of a modern brilliant.
Six slender claws cradle it high above a smooth, tapered band, an unfussy design that puts the diamond's color
completely on stage. Crafted in 14k yellow gold, the warm metal and the stone's cognac tones melt into one another
seamlessly. At just 3.00 grams, the ring is light and delicate against the hand despite the stone's imposing presence.
Circa 1900, this is a magnificent antique solitaire for someone who loves warm, earthy colors, and who would
choose a one-of-a-kind champagne diamond over a conventional white stone for an engagement or any milestone.
