This page gathers every stone in our collection cut as a radiant. The radiant is a hybrid: it takes the rectangular or square outline of a step cut, with its corners trimmed, and combines it with brilliant-style faceting across the crown and pavilion. The result is a stone that holds a clean, architectural silhouette while returning light in the lively, scintillating manner of a round brilliant.
The varieties that appear here are Blue Sapphire, Yellow Sapphire, Teal Sapphire, Aquamarine and Rainbow Moonstone. Brilliant faceting tends to deepen the apparent saturation of a colour by bouncing light repeatedly through the body of the stone, which suits the measured tones of aquamarine and the more complex, bi-tonal character of teal sapphire particularly well.
When choosing between them, weigh length-to-width ratio first, as this governs how square or elongated the stone reads on the finger, then colour saturation and how evenly it carries across the table. Corundum and beryl differ in hardness and in how they behave in a setting, so consider the intended mount alongside the stone itself.
