The radiant cut of this purple sapphire is where its inner fire is coaxed into joyous life, each facet carefully placed to amplify the gemological virtues nature bestowed upon the rough stone. A radiant shape blends the best of brilliant and step cutting, sending light into the stone and then returning it in a symphony of flashes and velvet pans of color, every plane contributing to the dance. Light enters through the table and fans along the pavilion, striking angled facets that act like mirrors, reflecting and refracting until the light finds its way back out in lively scintillation and deep flashes of purple. The excellent polish on every facet means the surface is a perfect stage for this performance, without the haze or dullness that would dilute the drama. Because this sapphire has no enhancement, the color and luster you see are entirely the work of nature and the skill of the cutter, a rare combination that lets the radiant cut do its honest work, maximizing brilliance while preserving the stone's natural saturation and depth.
