When Were Rose Cut Diamonds Popular?

Oct 8

Rose cut diamonds were first developed in the 16th century and reached their peak popularity during the Georgian and Victorian eras. These cuts were popular because they maximized the diamond's size and sparkle under candlelight. Over time, with the advent of electricity and the development of more brilliant cuts, rose cut diamonds fell out of favor. However, they have seen a resurgence in recent years as vintage-inspired and unique jewelry styles have come back into fashion.
