Radiant Cut Natural Diamond Engagement Ring

A radiant engagement ring is the right choice when anyone who wants a rectangular shape with more brilliance than a step cut delivers. The shape sets the entire visual character of the ring, and the radiant is one of the most distinctive choices you can make.

A radiant cut combines the rectangular silhouette of an emerald cut with the brilliant faceting of a round. The result is a stone that reads architectural but throws more sparkle than an emerald or Asscher. Anyone who wants a rectangular shape with more brilliance than a step cut delivers.

Best settings for a radiant centre stone

Four corner prongs hold the cropped corners securely without blocking light. A solitaire lets the radiant do everything; a halo adds a frame of smaller diamonds and makes the centre look 25–30% larger; a three stone setting flanks the centre with two accent diamonds.

What to expect on the finger

A 1 ct radiant is about 6 × 4.5mm. Most Riyanika customers choose between 1 ct and 2 ct for a radiant centre. Natural diamonds carry the provenance of a mined stone, with the long-term resale floor and tradition that come with a Kimberley-Process-certified earth-mined diamond.
