What is a radiant cut diamond?

Combining the brilliance of round cut diamonds with the clarity of rectangular or emerald cuts, radiant cut diamond rings produce some of the brightest shines of all diamond cuts. With 70 facets to maximise light reflection and refraction, radiant cut engagement rings are a truly dazzling cut.

Why are radiant engagement rings popular?

Due to the 70 facets found in its crown and pavilion and the symmetry of the shape, radiant cut engagement rings sparkle with brilliance — making them an excellent engagement ring choice. In addition to its bright shine, the bevelled corners of radiant cut diamond engagement rings make them durable and resistant to chips and breakage, which make them popular with those who prefer to wear multiple rings and those with an active lifestyle.

What is an Asscher cut diamond?

Octagonally shaped with each of its four sides cropped, Asscher cut engagement rings emphasise the clarity of high-quality diamonds and create a sort of endless hall of mirrors effect. The Asscher cut was designed in 1902 by Joseph Asscher and became synonymous with the roaring 20s until recently becoming popular again in the 2000s for its unparalleled brilliance.

Why should I choose an Asscher cut engagement ring?

When matched with the right stone, Asscher cut engagement rings exude a luminous presence with quiet elegance.
