2.70 Old Mine Cut Diamond Drop Earrings 18k

These 18 karat yellow gold drop earrings feature two old mine cut diamonds totaling 1.60 carats as the main stones, set in bezel settings with a two-tone design. The old mine cuts are graded VS2 in clarity and H-I in color—VS2 means very minor inclusions are invisible to the naked eye, while H-I color appears near-colorless with no noticeable tint.

The old mine cut is an antique style that predates modern round brilliants, with a cushion-shaped outline, high crown, and open culet that creates softer, broader flashes of light rather than the intense sparkle of modern cuts.

Eight additional round brilliant cut diamonds totaling 1.10 carats accent the design, providing contrast between the vintage cutting style of the main stones and the sharp sparkle of modern brilliants. Milgrain detailing—small beaded edges—frames the settings to add texture and definition.

The earrings close with lever backs that click securely into place, and the total diamond weight across both earrings is 2.70 carats.
