Is this a French cut?

Not to me. I think it's a stone someone set upside-down to give a "triangle" look

Omg. Really? Even if the peak is flat?

It looks like it comes to a point on top, like the culet of a diamond

No. It’s not a point. It is all flat.

 

[lovedogs]

No. It’s not a point. It is all flat.

Oh huh, OK I might be seeing an optical illusion. It reminded me of a faceted culet on the bottom of a diamond. I definitely don't see french cut

 

[nala]

I just did a search. Maybe a rose cut emerald?

 

[Ibrakeforpossums]

Looks older than what I know as a French cut.

 

[ItsMainelyYou]

I dunno, that looks like mildly flat pavilion meet points of a flipped stone to me, which makes sense if they were going for a domed rose cut. It's very pretty with the flat rose trillions.

I don’t know what it is but it’s very cool AND I hope you buy it so we can see it cleaned up and glorious.

No pressure or anything!

 

[lovedogs]

Domed rose is definitely a possibility!

It reminded me of these:

A little fire shot! No glamour shots bc still dirty!

 

[nala]

Ok maybe one more pre cleaning, lol

Now, don’t take this the wrong way (I know you are not a newbie and know your stuff) BUT are you sure it’s a diamond?! I have never seen a diamond that looks like this. It looks brownish gray on my screen is that how it looks IRL too? I am intrigued.

 

[Ibrakeforpossums]

Looks like it followed you home.

Yes. It is. Lol. Was diamond tested and is guaranteed to be a diamond.

 

[Mreader]

Could it be table cut? I’ve never seen anything quite like it. Very unique.

 

[Lookinagain]

I definitely would not call it a french cut, but whatever it is, it's interesting. Can't wait to see it all cleaned up.

 

[RMOO]

This is such an interesting, and pretty, ring! Is the picture giving an optical illusion? Are those prongs that large, and practically reaching the table?

 

[Niel]

No it isn’t.

I realize that I didn’t answer the color question. Tbh. In certain light, it looks brownish gray for sure. I don’t know how much the yellow gold is affecting the color. Also, it reflects color a lot! The little mirrors. I plan to swing by my jeweler soon so that he can look it over bc idk if I can really trust a diamond tester and your comment got me thinking.

 

[YadaYadaYada]

Oh no, I hope I don’t have you questioning yourself! I’ve just never seen anything like this before.

 

[nala]

Oki!! Dropped by one of my other pawn shops and they are all natural diamonds! They tested using 2 different testers. The pawn called it a champagne diamond.

 

[Ibrakeforpossums]

That ring is growing on me. "Anymore like you at home?"

 

[nala]

Here she is! Deep cleaned and pics with DD’s iphone 15. Definitely a champagne color! My jeweler thinks it’s a rose cut or inverted asscher but would not be sure unless he unmounted it and I am not that curious, lol. Prob a .50 or 60, he thinks.

 

[ItsMainelyYou]

Ooh, but didn't she clean up nice!

 

[Ibrakeforpossums]

What are the side stones?

 

[YadaYadaYada]

Neat! Looks SOOOO much prettier now. Looks great with that band too!

 

[Lookinagain]

she cleaned up very nicely. I still have no idea about the cut, but I'm not sure it matters. It's a great find.

 

[oldminer]

It looks like a step cut stone with a faceted pyramid style table. A very unusual cut, but not a French cut. Cleaned up, it looks great!
