Developed over twenty years ago, the Radiant cut is one of the newer cuts of diamond, and is steadily gaining popularity, especially for use in engagement rings.
This square or rectangular cut combines the elegance of the emerald shape with the brilliance of the round brilliant cut. The Radiant cut has the same cropped corners as the emerald or asscher cut but features a highly faceted pavilion, allowing for a supreme display of fire and brilliance.
The radiant cut has 70 facets, all of which maximize the effects of its light reflection and refraction. It is the first rectangular cut of diamond to feature the same pattern of crown and pavilion facets as a round brilliant cut, resulting in a more dazzling diamond than an emerald cut.
Radiant cut diamonds can be rectangular or square in shape. There are no set rules for whether to purchase a square or rectangular radiant cut. As long as the diamond is well cut, the choice is yours!
If you are considering a fancy coloured diamond, you might consider purchasing a radiant cut as the pavilion depth and facet arrangement can enhance the depth of colour in an individual diamond.

Jacinta from Larsen Jewellery (Melbourne) was incredible throughout the entire process. From initially dealing with my now fiancée, to helping me with the design process and adding my own creative touch, I am not sure how I could have managed without her. My fiancée LOVES the ring Jacinta and I created together. It is incredibly special to us and will remain in our family for generations to come. I already have and will continue to recommend Larsen but in particular Jacinta from the Melbourne team. Thank you once again. Jack.

Have been using Larsen Jewellery since our engagement and they made the process very easy and taught me everything I needed to know about diamonds/gems and the process. The staff was amazing/friendly and knowledgable. Quality of the final products exceeded my expectations and by far the best I have seen.

An excellent selection of men's wedding bands! We purchased a yellow gold and platinum ring for my husband, and the quality is outstanding. Alex, the jeweler, took the time to explain everything thoroughly and helped us to make the right choice, and Giorgia was very helpful with providing the invoices. Thank you!

I came to Larsen Jewellery feeling very out of my depth in relation to organising an engagement ring to propose to my partner. By the time my proposal day had come around, Celeste and the team at Larsen Jewellery made me feel like an expert on the topic! Celeste was very patient and informative as she assisted me in creating a custom ring for my fiancé. She has an infectious passion for what she does and it made the process of finding a ring way less daunting. My fiancé loves her ring and we will definitely be returning for future jewellery purchases!
