Old European diamonds were the most popular cut diamond between 1900 to 1920. This diamond cut was the transitional cut between old-mine cut diamonds and today's brilliant cut diamond. They are often confused for old-mine cut diamonds because of their high crown. Their fewer facets create a broader span of light reflection. It is a special treat to find a old European cut diamond weighing appx 3/4 carat with a VVS2 quality. Unlike today's diamonds, lasers were not used to remove carbon or other diamond flaws.
