About Old Cut Diamonds
The term 'Old Cut Diamond' refers to antique diamonds cut without the precision of modern cut diamonds. Other descriptions include 'Old Mine Cut' and 'Victorian Cut’. Before modern advancements in diamond cutting in the 1800s, diamonds were cut by hand by craftsmen; the positioning of facets were less structured and unique.
In comparison, more modern cuts have a far more ordered, geometric appearance. It is this hand-created, organic aesthetic that gives old cut diamonds their unique identities.
The Antiquity Collection
Antiquity celebrates the quiet beauty of old cut diamonds—hand-cut stones from the 1800s and early 1900s, shaped long before the age of modern precision. Their irregular forms and subtle imperfections carry the marks of another time, each one a fragment of history with its own quiet story.
Ellis re-sets these antique stones into sculptural, modern settings; giving them new life without erasing their past. The result is jewellery that feels both timeless and contemporary; a meeting point between heritage and modern design.
