What Is A Radiant Cut Diamond?

The Radiant Cut has 70 facets and is distinguishable by its cut corners. The Radiant shape combines the best elegant elements of the Emerald Cut with the brilliance of the round brilliant shape.


Radiant Cut diamonds may either be rectangular or square in shape. GIA refers to rectangular radiants as "Cut Cornered Rectangular Modified Brilliant" and the square Radiant shape as "Cut Corner Square Modified Brilliant".


Here are pictures of both radiant shapes. Both are beautiful. Which do you like best?
