The modern connoisseur of fine jewellery seeks more than just an accessory; they seek a compelling narrative.

The Heart of the Design: The Vivienne Old Mine Cut™

Taking centre stage is The Vivienne Old Mine Cut, a Flawless D-Colour Gordon Max Eco-Diamond. Inspired by the romantic diamond cutting traditions of the 18th and 19th centuries, this 77-facet masterpiece revives the artistry of a bygone era. Long before modern precision-cut diamonds dominated the market, master craftsmen shaped stones to perform beautifully under candlelight. They created larger facets, higher crowns, and distinctive proportions that emphasised depth and character over sheer uniformity. Showcasing an elongated cushion silhouette, The Vivienne Old Mine Cut features bold facet architecture and a signature open culet. This creates a mesmerising window directly into the heart of the stone. Rather than the sharp, rapid flashes of contemporary cuts, this stone delivers broader flashes of light and a softer scintillation, producing a warm, cinematic brilliance that feels rich and soulful.

The Audrey Ring Concept: Architectural Grace

As detailed in the conceptual sketches, the Audrey setting is meticulously engineered to elevate the 12.0 x 8.0 mm central stone. The design introduces unique double-claw prongs at the four corners of the stone. This subtle but crucial detail not only secures the substantial carat weight but also frames the elongated cushion cut with a regal, antique-inspired aesthetic, preserving the stone’s vintage facet character. Beneath the crown, the ring features a refined open pavé split shank visible in its profile. This delicate arch of micro-set stones introduces a whisper of extra brilliance that draws the eye upward without ever competing with the main Eco-Diamond.

Pristine Optical Clarity & Natural Lustre

The mastery of the Audrey Ring lies in its uncompromised optical purity. As showcased in its striking visual profiles, the setting is crafted to exhibit natural metal lustre and pristine clarity. Captured against a pure white background, the ring demonstrates its true brilliance—free from harsh, artificial glares, allowing the natural fire and internal refraction of the stone to speak for itself. When worn, the refined proportions of the central stone command attention, making it the perfect statement piece for hand-engraved solitaires, vintage settings, or those simply seeking a ring with timeless character. By exclusively featuring premium Eco-Diamonds and cultured gems rather than earth-mined diamonds, Gordon Max ensures that the Audrey Ring represents both a nod to history and a commitment to an ethical future.

What defines the visual difference between the Vivienne Old Mine Cut and a modern brilliant cut?
Unlike modern brilliant cuts, which are engineered for maximum, rapid sparkle, the Vivienne Old Mine Cut features larger facets, a higher crown, and an open culet. This creates broader, slower flashes of light and a warmer, more romantic scintillation reminiscent of candlelight.
No. Gordon Max strictly utilises premium Eco-Diamonds and cultured gems. This ensures a flawless, high-calibre optical performance that is entirely free from the environmental and ethical concerns associated with earth-mined diamonds.
