1. Antique Diamonds Are a Cut Above the Ordinary<\/h3>

Each antique diamond is one of a kind!\u00a0 Unlike contemporary (and nearly identical) machine-cut diamonds, antique diamonds were cut by hand using techniques and proportions that revealed the individual beauty of each diamond crystal. The development of full-cut shapes, like the antique cushion (mine) and European (the closest to the modern round brilliant), resulted in more light reflecting from the diamond, bringing sparkle to candlelit evening events of the late nineteenth and early 20th\u00a0century.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

2. The Craftsmanship of the Settings Are\u00a0Incomparable<\/h3>

If you fall in love with an antique diamond set in an antique or vintage setting, you have found a truly special treasure. Today, it is rare to find jewelers possessing the extraordinary skill and mastery of the techniques employed to create ruffled buttercup settings commonly seen in Victorian rings or the intricate filigree work and hand engraving that embellish Art Deco rings. These styles are difficult, if not impossible, to replicate as they were originally created. The exquisite settings, whether ornate or beautifully restrained, allow the diamond to shine upon a pedestal as singular as the\u00a0stone itself. An antique diamond in an antique setting is a testament to the masterful\u00a0skill and artistry of the past captured on your finger.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

4. A Fascinating History!<\/h3>

What did the diamond cutter see when he first laid eyes on the stone? How many times did he turn it over between his fingers before he saw its end in his mind?

Beyond the diamond cutters who cut them, every natural diamond has a singular creation history. The antique diamond that you choose was not quickly formed by modern inventions but was created deep within the earth and is at least hundreds of millions of years old. The stone has made its journey from the depths to the surface, bearing the \u2018birthmarks\u2019 that make it different from every other diamond, whether it\u2019s a trace presence of nitrogen that gives it a subtle warmth or a fascinating inclusion. Your ring is a one-of-a-kind sparkling story from both beneath and above the earth.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

5. Eco Friendly<\/h3>

While lab-grown diamonds have been promoted as ecologically better for the environment, recreating the conditions of the Earth necessary to create diamonds requires considerable energy resources. An enormous amount of electricity is needed to generate the temperature of 2,700 degrees Fahrenheit, and the 1.5 million pounds of pressure per inch for creating a diamond. In addition, cooling down the reactors for lab-grown diamond production uses very large amounts of water. Although some facilities use hydropower, the majority of lab-grown diamonds are manufactured in countries\u00a0(China and India) that rely heavily on coal.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Natural diamonds are kinder to the earth. Because they have already been mined, the stones have no further negative environmental impact, nor are they currently connected with unethical production practices or dubious political problems. They come to you beautifully preserved or lovingly restored, passed down from generation to generation. And, with the Lang Collection, we newly present original vintage diamonds in our own line of vintage-inspired engagement rings using 100% recycled precious metals.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
