Table Cut Diamond Rings & Jewellery

The table cut diamond was one of the most innovative creations in antique jewellery history. Before table cut diamonds were invented, jewels were formed into a ‘point cut’ shape. The point cut dates back to the 1300s, and its design imitated the point of a natural diamond. 

In the 1400s, stonecutters invented the table cut diamond. The table cut diamond can be recognised by its flat surface, called a ‘table.’ This new diamond cut was incredibly popular at the time. Diamond table cut rings and jewellery continued to be popular until the 1800s.
