Antwerp Cut

The Antwerp Cut is a diamond cut grade that was developed in Antwerp, Belgium, renowned for its craftsmanship. It evaluates how well a diamond has been cut to maximize its brilliance and fire through precise proportions and symmetry. The Antwerp Cut typically refers to a high-quality, expertly cut round diamond with balanced facets that reflect light efficiently. Although not an official grading term in major laboratories like GIA, it is used colloquially by jewelers to denote a superior, well-executed cut that enhances a diamond’s overall beauty and sparkle.
