Radiant cut diamonds are gaining popularity, known for their beautiful brilliance and unique elongated proportions. Despite their rarity, Fergus James offers an exquisite collection of radiant cut engagement ring designs that celebrate this refined style.
Introduced in 1977 by Henry Grossbard, the radiant cut combines the luster of round diamonds with the elegant shape of emerald diamonds. Its distinctive rectangular form, characterized by remarkable sparkle and fire, is quickly becoming a favorite among couples.
One of the most notable examples is Drew Barrymore's stunning 4 carat radiant engagement ring, a trailblazer among Hollywood stars. However, you don’t need to spend a fortune; even a 1 carat radiant diamond can deliver exceptional brilliance. Popular choices include white and canary diamonds.
When selecting a radiant shape, aim for a length-to-width ratio between 1.25 and 1.55 for the best balance. For a more rectangular look, choose a ratio closer to 1.55, while a squarer shape would benefit from a ratio around 1.2.
