How Is a Radiant Cut Diamond Cut for Its Detailed Facets?
A radiant cut diamond blends the square or rectangular outline of an emerald cut with a brilliant-style facet pattern. The cut combines vertical and horizontal facets and produces direct flashes of light and a subtle “crushed ice” sparkle. This mixed faceting creates numerous secondary reflections inside the diamond and generates many small virtual facets. The twinkling appearance, therefore, strengthens brilliance and gives yellow gold radiant cut engagement rings their signature eye-catching shimmer.
How Are Radiant Cut Yellow Gold Rings Crafted?
Radiant cut engagement rings yellow gold are crafted through a combination of precise metalwork and expert stone setting. The process begins with shaping the band from 14k or 18k yellow gold to ensure durability and proper weight. The radiant-cut diamond is then carefully measured to fit the chosen setting, which protects the clipped corners and increases light performance. At Flawless, our experts align the radiant gold ring’s facets to maximise brilliance and crushed-ice sparkle, then polish and inspect to ensure lasting durability.
