Rapaport Diamond Podcast

On a recent episode of the Rapaport Diamond Podcast, Hancocks London director Guy Burton highlighted a significant resurgence in the popularity of vintage diamond cuts, particularly old-mine cushions, bolstered by celebrity influences like Taylor Swift. While these unique stones were once overlooked in favor of standardized, modern cuts that prioritize surface area and uniform brilliance, contemporary consumers are now actively seeking them out for their distinct character and historical soul. Burton attributes this shift to social media exposure and a growing appreciation for the sustainability of recycled gems, marking a move away from the mass commercialization of the diamond market toward a preference for one-of-a-kind, storied jewelry.
