FAQs

Old European cut diamonds were popular from the late nineteenth to early twentieth century, featuring a round outline, a small table facet, a high crown, and an open culet. These hand-cut gemstones were faceted to reflect candlelight, giving them a distinct fire and soft sparkle compared to modern brilliant cuts.

During the Victorian and Edwardian eras, diamond earrings were frequently constructed with a top layer of silver to maintain the white appearance of the diamonds, backed with yellow gold to prevent silver tarnish from marking skin or clothing. Platinum and white gold were also adopted in later periods.

Authentic pieces usually display slight asymmetrical variations in hand-cut facets, hand-carved openwork, and period-specific metal hallmarks or makers marks. Ear fittings such as dormeuse hooks or kidney wires, along with silver-topped gold settings, are also characteristic indicator features.

Antique diamond drops function as elegant accent pieces for formal evening attire or tailored modern suits, providing a sophisticated focal point without requiring additional neckwear. Their delicate movement and warm light reflection suit both minimalist and elaborate ensembles.

Clean gentle settings using warm water, mild soap, and a soft-bristled brush, taking care not to submerge pieces with delicate foil backings or loose settings. Store them separately in soft fabric pouches to prevent diamonds from scratching adjacent metals or gemstones.
