The radiant cut combines a rectangular (or square) outline with brilliant-cut facets, giving it more sparkle than an emerald or Asscher cut while keeping clean, cropped corners.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is radiant cut more sparkly than emerald cut?
Yes — radiant cut uses brilliant-style faceting, so it returns significantly more light and sparkle than the step-cut emerald shape.
Does radiant cut hide inclusions well?
Better than emerald cut, though not as well as round brilliant — its facet pattern helps disguise minor inclusions.
