Radiant Cut Solitaire Classic | Two Tone Double Claw

Two-tone, by design.

The solitaire reimagined in two metals — a single radiant-cut diamond held high in a double-claw setting (claws in one metal, band in another), so the stone appears to float between contrasting tones on a slim 1.8mm half-round band. Confident, contemporary, and a touch dramatic.

The radiant cut combines the architectural shape of an emerald cut with the explosive sparkle of a round brilliant — making it one of the most brilliant non-round cuts available. Held by eight prongs (two at each corner) in the double-claw style, the diamond stays secure for daily wear without losing any of the visual openness that makes a solitaire a solitaire.

Handcrafted to order in our Sydney workshop by our master jeweller — thirty-plus years at the bench, leading a team of designers and setters who hand-make every Deltora ring. Choose your two-tone combination, your diamond (natural or lab grown), and we'll bring it to life by hand.

Frequently asked

What is a radiant cut diamond? A radiant cut diamond is a square or rectangular diamond with cut corners and brilliant-style faceting. Created in 1977 by Henry Grossbard, the radiant combines the architectural shape of an emerald cut with the sparkle of a round brilliant — making it one of the most brilliant non-round diamond cuts available.

What is a double-claw (or double-prong) setting? A double-claw setting uses two claws at each corner of the diamond instead of one. The result is more secure (with more contact points holding the stone), more visually substantial, and a slightly more dramatic silhouette than a single-claw setting. For square and rectangular cuts like the radiant, double claws are particularly common.

What is a two-tone engagement ring? A two-tone engagement ring uses two different metals in the same ring — typically one metal for the band and another for the claws or setting. The contrast highlights the diamond beautifully, gives the ring a more architectural look, and makes it pair more easily with mixed-metal jewellery already in the wearer's collection.

Which metal combinations work best for a two-tone setting? The most popular combinations are: yellow gold band with white gold or platinum claws (to highlight the diamond), white gold band with rose gold claws (warm against cool), and yellow gold band with rose gold claws (warm-on-warm for a softer look). Any combination of our four metals can be specified.

Does the radiant cut work in a solitaire setting? Beautifully. The radiant cut's clean geometric shape gives a solitaire serious visual presence — the square or elongated rectangular silhouette stands out against the round brilliants that surround it, while the brilliant-cut faceting delivers sparkle equal to a round.

What carat weight suits this setting? The double-claw radiant solitaire works across the carat range — from delicate 0.7ct stones to statement 3ct+ centres (like the 3ct pictured). The double-claw setting is particularly suited to larger stones (1.5ct and above), where the extra security matters most.

Can I customise this ring? Yes — every Deltora engagement ring is handcrafted to order. Choose your diamond shape and carat, your metal combination (any two of yellow gold, white gold, rose gold or platinum), the claw style, band width and any custom detail (hidden halo, secret birthstone, internal engraving).
