Show me the Radiants?

[Ringless in Texas]

Who wants to show off their radiant ring?

I know Radiant cuts are not the most popular here, but for those of you who are partial to them, I''d love to see your rings.

I am laughing at myself, because every time I see that pic, my initial thought is...what a hairy fore-arm...then realize....fuzzy brown sweater!

[Ringless in Texas]

[reena]

[Ringless in Texas]

I''m already wondering what two half carat traps will set me back.

Well, I''m probably showing my age here and you''ll have no idea what I''m talking about, but think Arnold Horshack from Welcome Back Carter.

Gosh...that''s my ring...

I would have posted it but Reena beat me to it!

Thanks, all of you...so nice....so....nice.....

 

[Nicrez]

RADIANTS ROCK!

Ok, I just had to say that....

 

[reena]

oh, nic, IM SORRY! i didn''t mean to steal your thunder! your ring is just a favorite around here.

but please by all means: POST MORE PICS! i''d love to see them . . .

 

[Nicrez]

LOL...my computer is actually REJECTING more pictures, because I think I have exceeded my picture-of-diamond-ring limit...

But in all honesty, there are alot of lovely radiants out there... *SIGH*

After your and MMM's cushions I am starting to get a bit converted here...(just a bit....)

I just learned that there are two types of looks for a radiant, one where there is a completely random pattern of sparkles, and another where the center of the stone has a ring of reflection in the center, which happens to be a very common look for radiants, and is usually the look that people associate with rads (Basically like my avatar shows)...

Mine is the latter, and I LOVE that kind...Everyone has a preferred look...mine is...the look of MORE radiants!

MWAHAHA!

I love this shot of Nicrez'' Rock:

 

[fuzzypill]

YAY!!! I''m sooooo excited that someone finally decided to devote a SMTR thread to RADIANTS. I''ve been in love with radiants ever since I saw one at a store a few months ago while ring shopping with bf. They are just so unique looking and sparkly. So I''m on a quest to find THE one.

Please...... MORE PICS, MORE STONES, MORE SETTINGS!!!!!!

P.S. I''m new here and I just wanted to say that this is a really awesome (and addictive!) website.

Hope this works. My computer''s acting up a bit. It''s not huge, but I''m in love with it. Some day it hopes to grow up to be like Nicrez''s beauty.

It''s .91 ct and sparkles like mad.

 

[Ivy]

It''s .91 ct F VVS2

Here''s one more and the full specs.

 

[icelady]

Thanks for posting my Radiant Reena!!!

Maybe I can try to get some some pics!

All the Radiants in this post are gorgeous!

 

[moremoremore]

Icelady- your radiant is SPECTACULAR!!!!!! I think this might be the first time I''m seeing it!

You and Nicrez have two of the most beautiful radiants I''ve seen to date!!!

 

[sevens one]

Nice pictures Ivy!

 

[moremoremore]

ADD Ivy''s beauty to my list too!!! Hell, these are all spectacular!!!

 

[Ringless in Texas]

I''m on the quest for my perfect Radiant too (but I might be getting close).

It seems to me that there are more yucky Radiants out there than other stones. Maybe it''s harder to cut them right? I don''t know - maybe an expert can chime in. I think this is why Radiants get a bad rap.

The best way I can describe it is when you see a well cut colorless radiant, you just get lost in it (it''s that random sparkle).

Keep those pics coming
