Old Diamond CutsIn order to understand some of the differences in the older diamond cuts it's important to understand some basic diamond anatomy and terminology.See all 8 photosSimple Anatomy of a DiamondSource: Marty Andersen (flash167)Anatomy of a DiamondTable: The table is the top flat portion of the diamond. Girdle: The girdle is the widest or the fattest part of the diamond.Crown: The crown is the top portion of the diamond that angles between the girdle and the table.Pavilion: The pavilion is the bottom portion of the diamond that slopes inward from the girdle. This portion of the diamond is the portion that reflects light back through the diamond.Culet: Sometimes the very bottom of the diamond where all the facets come together is cut off to help protect the point from being damaged. This was fairly common in some of the older diamond cuts.See all 8 photosPoint CutSource: Marty Andersen (flash167)Point CutCut during the early 1300's, the Point Cut is perhaps the simplest diamond cut. It looks somewhat like two pyramids joined together at the bottom.See all 8 photosTable CutSource: Marty Andersen (flash167)Table CutThe Point Cut was later improved by cutting off the top of the diamond to create a table. This cut is known as the Table Cut.See all 8 photosOld Single CutSource: Marty Andersen (flash167)Old Single CutThe Old Single Cut was invented in the late 14th century. It is similar to the Table Cut except the corners of the diamond are faceted creating eight crown and pavilion facets.The bottom of the diamond sometimes had a culet.See all 8 photosRose Cut both single hemisphere and double hemisphere cutsSource: Marty Andersen (flash167)Rose CutThe Rose Cut was invented in the mid 16th century. This cut had 24 facets (single hemisphere) or 48 facets (back to back hemisphere).

Unlike the Round Brilliant Cut,lancel handbags usa, the Old Mine Cut was more square with rounded corners in appearance or what is known as a Cushion Cut.The Old Mine Cut was not cut to today's precision standards.

Diamond on the other hand may fracture and break if struck on a hard surface.
