Shape
The radiant cut is a stunning hybrid of other diamond shapes - it resembles the rectangular silhouette and cropped corners of an emerald cut diamond, but with more sparkle.
Radiant cut diamonds have a modified brilliant cut, making their sparkle similar to princess cut diamonds. Radiant cut diamonds currently make up 3.3% of Ritani's diamond sales.
It's a sophisticated choice for those who want a more extraordinary diamond shape, but still with that classic sparkle. The elongated silhouette of radiant cut diamonds will make your diamond appear larger and will make your finger appear longer and more slender.
Stars who have worn radiant cut engagement rings include Jennifer Lopez and Drew Barrymore. Radiant cut diamonds are also a beautiful choice for custom jewelry, such as pendants and earrings.
Radiant cut diamonds are typically rectangular in shape, but they can also be square. For a square radiant cut diamond, choose a stone with a length to width ratio of 1.05 or less. For a rectangular radiant cut diamond, choose a stone with a length to width ratio of 1.20-1.35. Choose a length to width ratio that is appealing to you - there is no correct one.
If you want to add additional sparkle, choose a halo setting. This can also make your diamond appear larger. Or let your radiant cut diamond stand out on its own with a solitaire setting.
Ring Style
Sidestone engagement rings are one of the most popular setting styles at Ritani. This style features feature smaller diamonds in the band for added artistry and sparkle. Sidestone engagement rings pair beautifully with all diamond shapes, but look especially stunning with emerald-cut diamonds or Asscher-cut diamonds. These step-cut diamond-shapes don't sparkle much, so a diamond sidestone setting will add more sparkle to the ring. There are many different ways in which diamonds can be set into the band of an engagement ring, each creating a different look. French-set diamonds are diamonds that are raised, allowing extra light to enter the stone, and are set with tiny beads of metal. Pavé diamonds look like they are paved into the band and are set with tiny points of metal. Micropavé diamonds are set the same way, but with smaller clusters of diamonds set closer together. Channel-set diamonds are the most secure - they are held within a metal channel.
Metal
Rose Gold has a pinkish color and has become very popular for engagement rings. It's unique color and romantic appeal will make your diamond stand out among the other rings. It is made by combining gold with various proporitions of copper and silver to achieve the pink hue. The purity of rose gold is measured in karats. 18K rose gold is made of 75% gold and 25% copper and other alloys.
