Radiant Cut Diamonds

A radiant cut natural diamond combines the elegant rectangular or square outline of an emerald cut with the brilliant-cut faceting of a round diamond. This hybrid design produces 70 facets that deliver exceptional fire and scintillation while maintaining a sleek, geometric silhouette. Radiant cuts have trimmed corners, making them more durable than princess cuts and a versatile choice for nearly any setting style.

Radiant and emerald cuts share a similar rectangular silhouette, but their faceting is completely different. Radiant cuts use brilliant-style faceting that creates intense sparkle and hides inclusions well, while emerald cuts use step-cut faceting that produces a hall-of-mirrors effect and reveals inclusions more easily. A radiant is better for maximum sparkle in a rectangular shape, while an emerald suits those who prefer clean, subtle elegance.

Radiant cut natural diamonds hide inclusions exceptionally well thanks to their crushed-ice brilliance pattern, so VS2 clarity is typically eye-clean and offers excellent value. For color, G or H grades appear white to the naked eye in most settings. If set in yellow or rose gold, you can go as low as I or J color since the warm metal tone masks any slight warmth in the diamond.
