antique diamonds- worth more?

[kimccccc]

Hey everyone I was wondering if an antique diamond is worth more with the equivalent specs of size, cut, and clarity. Thanks for your help!

no, it is not, as a second-hand/used/vintage/antique item - unless it is a new branded "antique" sold on the primary market as an unused product, or has some historic significance or awesome story attached. At least in "regular" sizes/colours/clarities.. I don't know about the market for a pristine 10ct D IF OEC vs. modern RB.
