About Radiant Cut Diamond Rings
The radiant cut diamond offers the best of both worlds—the elegant shape of an emerald cut with the brilliant sparkle of a round diamond. Its 70 facets create exceptional fire and scintillation, making it one of the most brilliant fancy shapes available for engagement rings.
Our radiant cut lab grown diamonds feature the signature cropped corners that give this shape its distinctive look while also making it more durable than sharp-cornered cuts. Available in both square and rectangular shapes, radiant cuts offer versatility to match any style preference.
Each radiant diamond in our collection is IGI or GIA certified and hand-selected for exceptional light performance. Our settings range from classic solitaires to contemporary east-west designs, plus sparkling halo and three-stone arrangements, all crafted in your choice of 14K gold, 18K gold, or platinum.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does a radiant cut differ from an emerald cut?
While both have cropped corners, emerald cuts are step-cut for understated elegance, while radiant cuts use brilliant faceting for maximum sparkle. For another brilliant fancy shape, see our cushion cut rings.
Should I choose a square or rectangular radiant cut?
Square radiants offer a bold, modern look similar to princess cut rings, while rectangular radiants create an elongating effect on the finger. For more elongated shapes, explore our oval cut collection.
What clarity grade works for radiant cut diamonds?
Thanks to its brilliant faceting, the radiant cut hides inclusions well — VS2 or SI1 typically appears eye-clean. Find exceptional value in our Best Sellers or upgrade to top quality in our Premium Lab Grown Diamond Rings collection.
