Radiant diamonds are a popular shape for those who love the square shape of an Asscher or Emerald diamond, but also desire the sparkle of a round diamond. GIA does not grade cuts for fancy shapes. We have done the work for you by measuring the depth and the table percentages. When a fancy shaped diamond falls in within a very good and excellent cut it will have the maximum amount of sparkle. It will also measure appropriately to its carat weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

When choosing your Radiant diamond<\/a><\/strong> it is very important to establish your budget first. Once you know your budget, then it is time to rank the 4 C’s in order from most to least important to you; Carat, Color, Clarity, and Cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Radiant diamonds may vary greatly in their shape, from square to very elongated. This is due to their cut and length to width ratio. The length to width ratio measures the overall shape of the Radiant diamond. A ratio of 1.1 would be a very square radiant, where as a ratio of 1.4 would be a very rectangular radiant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
