Radiant cuts weren’t that popular 20 years ago when my husband proposed to me, but I always loved this diamond cut! Radiant cut diamonds are stunning,! With 70 facets, which is the most of any traditional fancy cut diamond, the sparkle and scintillation is amazing with the right color, clarity, cut, and length/width with ratio!! I understand it to be a hybrid type cut between an emerald step and a round brilliant.
I just ordered a radiant cut 1.5 ct on yellow gold pave setting. My original stone was a E color vs1, but I changed to a I color vvs2. It’s going on yellow gold ring so I don’t mind a slight yellow tint, but if it’s too much I would definitely return it.
@@kimberbauer1064 This is very very accurate. If you have to sell, sell private. I think people should list their new rings immediately after receiving them (for fun) to see if they can sell it, because it won't sell for anything remotely close to what was paid. Walk into a diamond dealer and 50% off is exactly the mark.
Very informative . I’ve always considered myself a cushion / radiant cut girl even though my fiancé surprised me with a round brilliant stone . But I’m convinced my next one is a radiant cut . Thanks for the insight 😉

When you compared the size of the round and radiant you said the radiant appears bigger. From what I saw on the screen the radiant was definitely longer but the round looked wider. So overall one looks bigger at one direction but not the other. This video was posted 2 years ago and I have to say I really don't see anyone with radiant cut diamonds at least not the east coast (Philly and NYC areas). What I see is a ton of round and oval, sometimes princess and cushion but mostly round and oval. Round will always be popular because it's a classic and has the most sparkle so that will always be around. The fancy shapes take turns trending. I'm starting to see some pear shape recently. I wonder why marques have not trended since the 80's, it's such a pretty shape.
Hey! You're definitely correct in saying that round will always be popular, but in our custom ring orders over the past 2 years (since this video was made) we've seen a huge uptick in radiant and marquise. Of course, lots of ovals and rounds too but radiant is definitely having it's moment right now too! We design rings all over the country so it's hard to say what shape is the most popular in each region - but you make an excellent point about regional trends.

I keep wanting an eye clean diamond, was looking for G color VS2 clarity. How likely am I to see an inclusion to the naked eye with SI1 with G color. Because if I can see the inclusion it will drive me crazy. With that being said is I or H color with VS2 clarity set in Platinum, going to give the same look as SI1 clarity with G color? Please, help me to figure out my best option to get the most for my budget. Looking at 1.26 carat to 1.76 carat stone with ratio of 1.30 to 1.35.

I can guarantee if you are getting a radiant diamond VS2 you will not see any inclusion if it is GIA certified. Jewelers are all crooks, unless you know them personally. Good luck 🙂
@@christiliablitch2485 Hi. G color is best for the Radiant Cut, especially if you are going to place the diamond in a platinum setting. Radiants are better at hiding inclusions than other cuts, but they will display more color than other cuts. If you were setting your stone in yellow gold, I would say you’d be safe with an H or an I if you didn’t mind the warm tone that would be reflected in it. As far as SI1 clarity, you can find very good SI1 clarity diamonds. You want to make sure the diamond doesn’t look cloudy and you can’t see any inclusion, especially in the center with the naked eye. I hope this is helpful. Just remember that an emerald will need a very high clarity to hide inclusions, and generally highly faced cut like a radiant hides inclusion and shows more color.
@@fpluxury8331 I have a HRD antwerp certificate, it says natural, H, VS2. I paid 25.000$. Do you think I paid too much? How much will it be if I sell it?
@@kimberbauer1064 antwerp certs are definitely much more lenient in their grading vs. what you would see in a GIA certificate. An "H/VS2" on an antwerp cert is more like a "K/SI2" on a GIA cert. I think the price you could sell it for would be closer to $15K but its hard to say exactly.
H is fine, but anytime you can find a stone above an H in color, you're going to have a better guarantee of getting that white/colorless diamond look you're going for. If you'd like some help in the engagement ring buying process, request a free quote through my website faithfulplatform.com!

You only get 50% of what you paid when you return a diamond, I’ve learned this the hard way.

Are you sure that very good polish level and symmetry is not good enough for radiant cut?

Excelente informação!gratidão tmj !👏💎
I have Radiant 3ct, H color and it looks sooooo yellow 🥺 I wonder how much would I lose if I sell this and get a G color instead?
How much did you pay for the H color stone what was the specs? Is it an earth mined or a lab grown diamond?
@@fpluxury8331 I have a HRD antwerp certificate, it says natural, H, VS2. I paid 25.000$. Do you think I paid too much? How much will it be if I sell it?

@@fpluxury8331 oh nooooo! K color? That’s basically yellow 🥺
You will get 25% of whatever you paid.
cracking of chipping?... hum...
Why not an H? is there a big difference?
H is fine, but anytime you can find a stone above an H in color, you're going to have a better guarantee of getting that white/colorless diamond look you're going for. If you'd like some help in the engagement ring buying process, request a free quote through my website faithfulplatform.com!
There is nothing above you.
Radiant cut looks more masculine 😄
