What do you consider to be the perfect diamond? A square cut with flawless brilliance? Then the radiant cut diamond is more than worth a look. This diamond cut was developed not so long ago, but is already very popular. As many as 70 precisely cut facets break and reflect the light, just like a classic brilliant. Perfect proportions and flawless symmetry give the radiant cut diamond that distinctive look.
The radiant cut is a rectangular cut with 70 facets. This cut combines the brilliance of the round brilliant with the elegance of the emerald shape. The corners are slightly rounded, making the diamond less vulnerable and it therefore not only has a higher wearing comfort, but also a longer life span.
The radiant cut diamond is the creation of Henry Grossbard. He was part of The Radiant Cut Diamond Company and in 1977, he breathed new life into existing, old cuts. There were already rectangular diamond shapes, but they reflected little light and always looked a bit dull. The radiant cut diamond, on the other hand, equals the sublime brilliance of the brilliant, which is the most magnificent and expensive diamond cut.
The radiant cut is sometimes confused with the cushion cut. This makes sense, as this cut is also square, but there are some differences between the two. The cushion cut is more rounded due to large facets with rounded corners. This cut places less emphasis on the brilliance of the diamond, but more on the colour.
The princess cut is also sometimes compared to the radiant cut. However, the princess cut has fewer facets than the radiant cut, namely 58. As a result, the cut has less sparkle. The corners are also a bit sharper, making the stone more fragile.
Unique, that's the best way to describe the radiant cut diamond. This hybrid cut combines the characteristics of a brilliant with a step diamond or step-cuts, where the facets descend in a stepped cut. It goes without saying that such a versatile design guarantees a playful sparkle of light, and a unique look. The different cuts form a high-quality end result that equals the brilliance of a brilliant.
