1 Carat Old Cut Lab-Grown Diamond
A 1 carat old cut lab-grown diamond brings the warm, romantic sparkle of antique diamond cutting to a modern, ethically created stone. Unlike the uniform facet pattern of a contemporary round brilliant, old cuts — including Old European and Old Mine styles — have a smaller table, a larger culet, and less mechanically precise faceting, producing a softer, candlelight-like glow rather than sharp modern fire. It's a distinctive choice for vintage-inspired and heirloom-style engagement rings.
What Is a Lab-Grown Diamond?
Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds created using either the High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) or Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) method in a lab. These stones share the same physical, chemical, and visual properties as mined diamonds—only their origin differs. Even trained gemologists require special tools to tell them apart.
Choosing lab-grown means saving 30% to 50% over the cost of natural diamonds while making a sustainable and ethical choice.
All Rève Diamonds' lab-grown diamonds are independently certified, typically by IGI or GIA.

What is an old cut diamond?
"Old cut" is an umbrella term for antique diamond-cutting styles — including the Old European Cut and Old Mine Cut — that predate the modern round brilliant. These cuts have fewer, larger facets and a bigger culet, giving them a warmer, more romantic sparkle rather than maximum brilliance.
