“The certificate confirmed it was mined before 1930 - holding something that old, reset without losing a single original detail, is a different feeling entirely.”Private client, Zurich
“I worried a vintage stone would look dated. It doesn't. The bead-set gallery is period-correct but it wears like something made last week.”Private client, Kyoto

The original mount was beyond saving, so our bench copied its bead-set gallery stitch for stitch before the stone was ever removed from its old prongs.
Every facet was mapped before recutting was ruled out entirely - a Kashmir stone this old is never touched, only reset.
