Jewellers classify diamond shapes as either round or fancy (any non-round cut). Developed in the 1970s, the fancy radiant cut was a breakthrough in diamond-cutting technology. This rectangular shape blends the dazzling light performance of round brilliant cuts with the commanding presence of emerald cuts.
Radiant-cut engagement rings deliver several key advantages:
Radiant diamond engagement rings offer a captivating balance between brilliance and structure. Their sleek lines and dazzling sparkle create a look that’s timeless yet modern. Radiant cuts photograph beautifully and catch the light from every angle, ensuring the ring remains captivating for generations.
Discover the alluring features of our radiant diamond engagement rings.
Our radiant-cut engagement rings are set in designs that enhance the diamond’s natural fire and brilliance. Brilliance refers to the white light reflected from the diamond, while fire is the rainbow-coloured light you see when it catches the light.
Halo radiant cut engagement rings create breathtaking brilliance by framing the central gemstone with smaller accent stones. The radiant cut’s exceptional fire is amplified by the halo’s added sparkle, creating maximum visual impact.
We offer both traditional and hidden halo designs. Hidden halos sit beneath the centre stone for a more subtle, luxurious enhancement.
Our side stone rings feature radiant-cut centre diamonds flanked by accent stones set along the band. The rectangular shape of the radiant cut pairs beautifully with linear accent stones, creating a sleek, harmonious design that maintains the central focus.
Solitaire radiant cut rings epitomise understated elegance. This classic style features a single, magnificent diamond in a pointed claw setting, showcasing its bold and unique fusion of emerald-cut elegance and round diamond sparkle.
Also known as three-stone rings, trilogy engagement rings feature three radiant-cut gemstones, symbolising your past, present and future together. The symmetrical shape of radiant cuts creates a beautifully balanced and cohesive look when set side by side.

The age-old question of engagement ring budgets doesn’t have a one-size-fits-all answer. You’ve likely heard the “two to three months’ salary” rule, but the truth is more straightforward: Spend what you can afford.
Industry expert David Bercott has 50 years of experience in the jewellery industry and advises couples to focus on what they can comfortably afford.
Luckily, radiant-cut diamonds offer great value. They’re incredibly forgiving when it comes to clarity. Their many facets scatter light beautifully, helping mask inclusions. That means you can choose a lower clarity grade and still enjoy a large diamond that looks flawless to the naked eye.
Both cuts are rectangular, but radiant diamonds feature 70 brilliant-style facets that create an intense sparkle similar to that of round cuts. Emerald cuts have 57 facets arranged in a step-cut pattern, creating a sleek, mirror-like effect.
Radiants are a popular choice for their fire and brilliance, while emerald-cut diamonds have a more subtle shine.
Radiant cuts have mixed facets, creating what many people refer to as a “crushed ice” effect. Some parts of the diamond emit bright flashes of light, while others produce a softer, more subtle sparkle. It’s this combination that gives radiant cuts their distinctive character.
This optical phenomenon happens through the interaction of the diamond’s numerous facets, which create secondary internal reflections. These reflections generate multiple virtual facets that can produce either sharp, contrasting flashes or a softer, more diffused brilliance.
The resulting light performance offers visual interest and depth that distinguishes radiant cuts from other diamond shapes.
