Rose-cut diamonds from Pukka Berlin

Know what's sparkling - what is a rose cut?

The rose cut belongs to the category of antique cuts that are still represented in the jewelry trade. It first appeared in Europe around 1530 and then spread further. In the 19th century, the shape, which is reminiscent of a closed rosebud due to the tapered facets, gained popularity and attention. At this time, the gemstones were still worked by hand and were intended to shine and sparkle, especially in low light, such as candlelight. Because the rose cut has a straight, uncut base and also has far fewer facets than a brilliant, for example, it allows the light that falls on the stone to pass through, making the stone appear glassy and almost transparent. You should therefore pay particular attention to the purity of the stone and particularly colorful stones come into their own with this treatment. There are also different types of rose cuts: the simple rose cut with 6 facets, the Antwerp rose cut with 12 facets and the Dutch rose cut with 24 facets.
Fact: One of the largest and most famous diamonds, with 787 carats, called "Grand Mogul", also has a rose cut.

Rose cut with lab or natural diamonds?

At Pukka Berlin, we work a lot with laboratory-grown diamonds as well as natural diamonds. There are actually no major differences between lab-grown and natural diamonds. In purely visual terms, they are completely the same and a diamond tester does not show anything different from a natural diamond. The only difference is the time of formation. While natural diamonds are formed in the ground over a very long period of time, lab-grown diamonds, as the name suggests, are created from a natural diamond seed within 4-6 weeks using the CVD (chemical vapor deposition) process in the laboratory. The advantage of these lab-grown diamonds is that they are cheaper than natural diamonds, although their quality is usually even better than that of natural diamonds, as their production process is monitored. Lab diamonds also offer a wide range of colors. If you would like to know more about lab and natural diamonds, you can take a look at our magazine. There you will find an article on Laboratory vs natural diamonds and another to Laboratory diamonds.
