Antique Old Emerald Cut Diamond 0.90 ct | F VS1
Why we chose this stone
A step-cut with real history behind it, this 0.90 carat Antique Emerald Cut diamond brings a different kind of elegance to the collection — long, rectangular facets rather than the brilliant faceting of round or cushion-shaped antique cuts. Emerald cuts prioritise clarity and light play over maximum sparkle, meaning every inclusion (or lack thereof) is far more visible than in a brilliant-cut stone.
That makes the grading on this one especially notable: F colour sits right at the top of the near-colourless range, bordering on colourless, and VS1 clarity is exceptionally clean for a diamond of any age — let alone one hand-cut at least 80 years ago. Rescued from an antique piece of jewellery and sourced through Antwerp, this stone offers a rare combination rarely seen together in the antique diamond market: genuine age and craftsmanship paired with near-flawless, high-colour grading.
For a collector after the architectural elegance of a step cut with true antique provenance, this is a standout piece.
A practical size with real provenance behind it, this is a diamond suited to someone building a considered collection rather than chasing size alone.

I’ve purchased several diamonds and a range of other stones including opals, sapphires and more from Julie. The quality and price point was excellent. Her calm, relaxed approach to creating bespoke jewellery has been spot on every time. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

The experience I had throughout this process was amazing. Not knowing much about this area, Julie took the time to explain everything to me in detail, which gave me a lot of comfort.I could not fault the price, the quality and experience I had with Hope Diamonds. A very very successful journey with Julie and the team :) I highly recommend Hope Diamonds.
