When Taylor Swift announced her engagement, the world not only celebrated her love story but also took notice of her ring. With its vintage-inspired Old Mine cut diamond, her engagement ring is steeped in nostalgia, echoing a history of romance, craftsmanship, and enduring style.
At Chupi, we understand the magic of diamonds that feel as though they carry stories within them and few cuts capture that sentiment quite like the Old Mine Cut.
What is an Old Mine Cut Diamond?
Old Mine cut diamonds are among the earliest forms of the modern brilliant cut, dating back to the Georgian and Victorian eras. Hand-cut by candlelight, each stone carries a soft, romantic glow that feels distinctly different from today’s laser-cut precision.
Their cushion-like shape, high crown, and smaller table reflect light in a warmer, more soulful way. Perfect for those who want a ring with character, history, and charm.
