Center stone: 4.02ct(10.27x10.24x5.85mm), Round European Cut, F Color, VVS1 Clarity, Excellent Cut
About This 4.02ct Old European Cut Diamond:
At over 4 carats, this is one of the largest Old European Cut lab grown diamonds we've had in inventory. The substantial 10.27mm diameter gives the stone a commanding face-up presence — closer to what a 5-carat modern brilliant looks like, due to the OEC's higher crown and shallower pavilion.
The cut itself is faithful to 19th-century proportions: 24 chunky main facets, a high crown that catches and slows light, and a small open culet visible from above. Together these produce the soft, candle-light glow that distinguishes OEC stones from the sharper sparkle of modern brilliants.
F color places this stone in the colorless range — the second-highest tier on the GIA color scale and visually indistinguishable from D in face-up viewing. Combined with VVS1 clarity (no inclusions visible under standard 10x magnification), this is a top-grade stone by every measurable dimension.
