Rose cut diamonds (RCD) were introduced as early as the 1500's and were popular until the early 1900's. The shape usually resembles the petals of a rose bud. The bottom is flat. The crown is domed shaped and the facets meet in a point in the center. The number of facets varies from 3,6,12,18,to 24 facets. After the 1900's, everyone preferred to purchase and wear the modern cut diamonds (MCD). It is only during the last 7 years when diamond lovers have begun to demand for this cut once again.
This is an eternity ring using 10 pear shaped RCD with a total weight of 4.92 carats. Since the diamond is flat on the bottom, this ring wraps around the finger perfectly. A great alternative to the classic engagement ring after all, we are all about being unique.
Jul B. Dizon designers have been in love with the RCD since we all started manning the business. We all love the look of antique jewellery which is why when we come up with designs, we usually use estate jewellery as our inspiration. Something that the Royal Family would wear and I guess it's the kind of jewellery that I would wear just as soon as Prince William realizes that he wants me as his Royal Wifey!
It is said that when you wear this stone, it brings luck to your business. Most of my clients have at least one set of RCD and true enough, their businesses are thriving! I am not saying that it is all because of the RCD but it won't hurt you to wear one. It is also a great stone to have because of the illusion of size and weight meaning, since all diamonds are sold by its carat weight, a one carat RCD may look like a three carat of MCD. So price wise, it is much cheaper. Measurement wise, the one carat RCD may have the same diameter as a three carat MCD. Not bad if you are a size queen.
The MALTESE cross is a favorite of our clientelle. We have made a few variations of it and these brooches are all convertible to pendants and may even be worn as a bangle.
All the items above have been sold but we would be very happy to design you our own version of the Royal Jewels.
