Show Me Your Radiant Cuts

[Samantha Red]

After some very helpful advice on a quesiton I posted yesterday, I would love love love to see radiant cuts on the hand please. Preferably a mixture of halo and non-halo.

I have got it in my very silly old head that my BF is going to propose at the end of the month and I want to be prepared LOL

He is taking me to a very swanky hotel in the Lake District, that we have been to once before and is now designated our absolute favourite, so I am very hopeful. No doubt I will be dreadfully disappointed but the anticipation is lovely.

Some photos would be lovely please.

Many thanks

Here is mine. 1.20 carats, F in 3 sided pave band.

Islanddreams thank you I am absolutely speechless at how beautiful that is. May I ask what finger size you are please?

That is the exact ring that I have in my head. I have never seen a ring like that here in the UK, which is another reason for being so happy at finding this site. My views on an Ering have completely changed, unfortunately for my beloved! LOL.

What clarity is your centre stone as well please?

Many thanks

Here is mine, a 1.20 radiant, G color, SI1. In january I had my stone reset into this setting. I love it!!!!!

 

[Samantha Red]

gorgeous, simply breathtaking. It seems to me that you get a lot of stone per carat with these radiants. Am I right?

Thank you for the nice comments on my ring. My ring size is a 5. The ring is actually a 5.25 because I knew I''d not be able to size it easily. The clarity is VVS2 which I don''t think you really need. I liked the length to width ratio on mine--1: 1.24. The settings is Michael B''s 3 sided pave..the smaller version. I have the matching wedding ring too.

Radiants are tough. You really need to see them. I think Nicrez has one of the most spectacular radiants on this site.

I don''t have a halo or a solitaire, but I do own three beautiful radiants.

They are a hard stone to find, but when you do, well worth the trouble. I hope you find the one that speaks to YOU!

Hope your proposal is in your near future. It''s good to be prepared!

Wow, nice pictures! The only one I have for now is my avatar. 1.5 H vs2--my baby. It twinkles and throws bars of light like a random universe of color. Kind of like fireworks. I think that describes it best, "fireworks." Love love radiants.

[Samantha Red]

All of these rings are simply stunning, I might have to buck tradition and do the proposing myself if it hurries along one of these little beauties!

Thank you all so much

Molly I would say that is absolutely stunning and doesn''t look at all small to me!

I am a little scared now, because the prevailing theme seems to be the difficulty of finding good radiants. Luckily I have formed a bit of a rapport with a local small jeweller (business size not stature), and I hope I could trust him to do the job.

AmberWaves has one of the most gorgeous radiants I've ever seen. I hope you don't mind me posting it for you, Amber!
