The Rose Cut Collection from David Morris is a modern-day icon.
What began with a single Rose Cut ring, given as a gift, has become one of the House’s most celebrated collections—an enduring symbol of love, adored the world over. So-called because the configuration of facets resembles the spiral of petals in a rose bud, the rose cut diamond originated in 16th century India, flourished in the Georgian Britain and peaked in popularity during the Victorian era.
By the 20th century, it had fallen out of favour, until Jeremy Morris, CEO and Creative Director of David Morris, rediscovered its captivating beauty and placed it centre stage in the first Rose Cut ring.
Created in the year 2000, the ring featured a band of translucent rose cut diamonds, showcased in a contemporary setting. Combining Jeremy Morris’ appreciation of antique diamonds with his love of modern jewellery design, this seminal jewel kickstarted the renaissance of the rose cut diamond at David Morris. Now, the Rose cut collection is a firm attribute in our modern jewellery collection as well as romantic jewellery and dainty pieces.
From the moment the Rose Cut Collection was first unveiled in 2002, it immediately spoke to women with its understated elegance and signature romance. Framing translucent rose cut stones with the House’s signature micro-set diamonds, the collection fused an 18th-century diamond cutting technique with 21st-century craftsmanship, artfully uniting the past and the present.
Adorning rings, earrings, bangles and necklaces, the Rose Cut Collection has been such a success for David Morris that it has fuelled the revival of the rose cut diamond among the world’s most discerning collectors.
The introduction of mini Rose Cut jewels, including fashion-fuelled single earrings, huggy hoops, ear cuffs and climbers, has also switched a new generation of jewellery lovers to the wearability, versatility and timeless beauty of this most delicate and dainty of diamond cuts.
Forever iconic, David Morris continues to honour the rose cut in new designs that pay homage to its mesmerising glow and subtle shine.
“Wearing a rose-cut diamond feels very different to a modern diamond,” says Jeremy Morris. “Its delicate play of light is the definition of femininity and romance. Slightly translucent, they also offer a glimpse of the skin beneath. I adore them and so do our clients.”
