Brisbane Old Cut Diamonds or New? — Here at Leonard Joel Brisbane, I am fortunate enough to have diamonds from many eras pass through my hands, both old cuts and modern. The allure and charm of old-mine and old European cut diamonds with their unique sparkle, large facets and open cuts, puts them on a par with natural pearls as the aristocrats of antique and early 20th Century jewellery. Each stone carries its own history, recalling the skill and dedication of the bench craftsman who created it by hand. Modern brilliant cut diamonds have their own special appeal too. Developed by De Beers in 1947 with the aim of producing stones with maximum clarity and internal reflection, they celebrate artistry, precision and technical perfection. Whether you choose old cuts steeped in history, or a modern stone machine-cut to precision, your selection is sure to become a cherished heirloom. Leonard Joel Brisbane can assist with all aspects of buying and selling jewels, timepieces, fine art, decorative arts, luxury pieces, and more.
