Radiant Cut Engagement Rings
The Radiant cut diamond is a perfect choice for those wanting sparkle and brilliance from their engagement ring. Rectangular radiant cuts are most common with a ratio from 1.05 up to 1.50 – these give a better size per carat and will elongate the finger of the wearer.
Why Radiant?
Built of 70 facets with soft edges this rectangular shape disperses more light than most shapes making it the more brilliant of the rectangular and square shaped diamond. As well as more facets, it is a hybrid of both brilliant and step cut facets so the radiant cut disguises the inclusions that other shapes do not which makes it the best of both worlds when selecting a diamond
