Radiant Cut Diamond Jewellery

Discover Our Collection of Radiant Cut Diamond Jewellery

Radiant cut diamond jewellery has been popular since its invention. Radiant cut diamonds were invented by diamond cutter Henry Grossbard in 1977. Working in New York, he was part of a group of diamond cutters who were utilising computer technology to create new diamond cuts. His goal was to create a square cut diamond that had the beauty and brilliance of modern round brilliant diamonds. The result was the stunning radiant cut diamond. 

Just like stonecutters of the past, the 1960s and 70s saw new technology able to assist in developing diamond cutting technology. Radiant cut diamonds were immediately popular down to their shine and beauty. Other diamond cuts which were invented at the time include the Princess Cut diamond and the Barion Cut. 

Radiant cut diamonds can be recognised by their 70 facets, which increases the light reflection of the stone. Some radiant cut diamonds have 66 facets, however, this does not reduce the beauty of the stone. It reflects light like a mirror, producing a beautiful shine. Jewellers choose the shape of the radiant cut diamond according to the setting and design of the piece. They are often cut in rectangular or square shapes, making them popular in engagement rings and bracelets.

Radiant cut diamonds look a lot bigger than their actual size. As a result, radiant cut diamond jewellery is renowned for its captivating appearance and status. This optical illusion is especially popular with people who love glamorous and eye-catching jewellery designs.

For jewellery enthusiasts who are captivated by the way diamonds sparkle, the radiant cut diamond is a perfect choice. Another reason why radiant cut diamond jewellery is so popular is due to its unique and stunning luminosity. The sparkle and brilliance of radiant cut diamonds are sought after worldwide. 

Radiant cut diamonds are also especially durable. Their cropped corners strengthen the stone, demonstrating how much Grossbard’s artistry has resulted in diamond cutting innovation. 

Radiant cut jewellery has been incredibly popular since it was introduced onto the jewellery market in 1977.
