What does radiant cut mean?

The radiant cut is a beautiful and unique diamond shape that combines the elegance of an emerald cut with the brilliance of a round brilliant. It's a popular choice for those who want a diamond with a lot of sparkle and a distinctive shape.

Rather than diamond, Jowissa utilizes expertly cut mineral glass (for watches) and Austrian crystal (for jewelry), each piece faceted in the radiant cut to capture and reflect light with exceptional brilliance.

Facet Radiant

The Facet Radiant ladies’ wristwatch lives up to its name. Multiple facets on the watch glass radiate light and sparkle on your wrist. This incredible design is a tribute to the modern-shaped radiant cut diamond that is much-loved for its unique square or rectangular shape and trimmed corners. The Facet Radiant celebrates this eight-sided shape with a 26 x 30mm case and designer dials encircled with gold-tone detail. The range of vibrant colours in this collection includes a sophisticated Green, lavish Purple and a majestic royal Blue that set off the fire and brilliance of the watch crystal. These colour watches for women are enhanced by glossy crocodile leather straps or polished gold-tone bracelets. The Facet Radiant watches are not only beautiful but also carefully crafted timepieces. Hand-assembled in Switzerland, these high-quality designs have all the credentials of high-end designer watches at a fraction of the price. So, if you are looking for a great-value watch with a unique look, put Facet Radiant on your wish list or treat yourself.
