The Old European Cut was the direct predecessor to today's round brilliant, but with a smaller table, higher crown, and larger culet — details that give it a softer, more romantic glow rather than the sharp precision of modern rounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eHand-cut at least 80 years ago, this diamond was rescued from an antique piece of jewellery and sourced through Antwerp, a city with centuries of history at the centre of the diamond trade. Its J colour grade brings a warm, gentle tone typical of stones cut in this era, and SI1 clarity gives it good transparency with the kind of natural character that sets antique diamonds apart from flawless modern cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAt this size, it's a lovely option for anyone wanting an entry point into antique diamond collecting, or a meaningful accent stone with genuine history behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hope diamonds \u0026 gemstones","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53556866810150,"sku":"WOEC097JSI1","price":3250.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/2058\/7046\/files\/WOC097JSI1.jpg?v=1785890164","url":"https:\/\/hopediamonds.com.au\/products\/antique-old-european-cut-diamond-0-97-ct-j-si1","provider":"Hope diamonds \u0026 gemstones","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
