Antique Lab Grown Old European Cut Diamond Engagement Rings  

Ouros Jewels premium lab grown old european cut diamond engagement rings are certified, made to order, and available across the full range of settings, metals, and stone configurations. 

Why OEC Instead of Round Brilliant?

Three reasons buyers arrive at the OEC over a modern round, and all three are purchase-level advantages. 

First, character - the OEC diamond returns light as wide, romantic colored flashes rather than the rapid-fire white sparkle of a round brilliant cut. In low light and candlelight, a round brilliant dims significantly; an OEC glows. 

Second, value per carat - the OEC's shallower depth and different proportions mean it faces up larger per carat than a modern round, giving more visible stone per dollar. 

Third, color grade - warm grades (G, H, even K and M) look dramatically different in an OEC than in a modern brilliant. The high crown and chunky facets return warm light in a way that makes lower color grades appear bright rather than yellow. 

Buyers who choose old european diamond regularly drop one or two color grades from what they would need in a round brilliant and the stone looks better for it. An antique diamond engagement ring with OEC proportions is not a compromise on sparkle.

Rare Round Pairings - What Makes an Ouros Jewels OEC Engagement Ring Distinctive

The old euro round diamond silhouette works with side stone cuts that no modern brilliant ring uses. These pairings are period-correct and visually unique, the combinations that make an old european cut engagement ring look like something recovered from an estate rather than purchased from a jewelry counter.

• Old European Cut & Baguette Engagement Rings - One of the most popular Art Deco combinations, pairing a round Old European Cut center diamond with straight or tapered baguette side stones in platinum, white gold, or yellow gold three-stone engagement rings.
• Old European Cut & French Cut Rings - Ideal for buyers seeking authentic Edwardian or vintage engagement rings, where delicate French cut diamonds add refined antique character without overwhelming the center stone.
• Old European Cut & Calibre Cut Designs - Custom-cut gemstones or unique shaped diamonds precisely fitted into the setting, creating one of the rarest Old European Cut engagement ring styles for collectors of period-inspired jewelry.
• Old European Cut with Bullet or Trillion Side Stones - A distinctive choice for buyers looking to blend antique round diamonds with architectural Art Deco styling or contemporary vintage-inspired engagement ring designs.

OEC in Platinum - The Edwardian Standard

Platinum became the jeweler's metal of choice in the Edwardian era precisely because it suited the old european cut diamond. Its cool white tone maximises the OEC Diamonds without adding warmth, its hardness protects delicate milgrain and filigree work, and its density allows thinner, more intricate settings than gold.

 An old european cut diamond ring in platinum is the most historically accurate configuration and the most searched metal variant for vintage OEC engagement rings. Colorless EF and FG color OEC stones in platinum produce maximum precision. Yellow gold 14k and 18k suit warm GH and JK color stones and amplify the candlelit character toward something approaching actual firelight. Rose gold and two-tone configurations are available across all stone grades.
