The Antique Parlour

Asscher Cut

The Asscher cut was patented by the Asscher Brothers of Holland in 1902 and became the darling of the Art Deco era — a square step cut with cropped corners and a deep, hall-of-mirrors depth that suits geometric platinum settings perfectly. Original antique Asschers, cut before the modern standardization of the shape, are prized by collectors precisely for their handmade proportions.

Genuine antique Asscher cut diamond rings are among the scarcest things we handle, so this collection is small and changes as exceptional stones surface — recent examples have included GIA-certified Art Deco engagement rings. Ask us to source one privately if nothing here fits.

Every piece is one of a kind and authenticated in-house. Domestic orders ship free, fully insured, by express delivery; layaway is available, and viewings can be arranged by appointment in Great Neck, New York, or over FaceTime.
