All about Round Brilliant Diamonds for Engagement Rings and Wedding Bands: The Diamond with the Most Sparkle
Round diamonds are called “brilliant” because the shape reflects the most light, and as a result, provides the most sparkle of all diamond cuts. Round diamonds are always one of the most popular for engagement rings due to their stunning and traditional look.

Round cut diamonds reflect the most light because they have the largest number of facets of all diamond cuts at 57-58. These diamonds require more raw material (due to how they are cut) and therefore can be more expensive than diamonds of different shapes with the same carat weight.
The most important criteria for any diamond is that you love how it looks, but your Robbins Brothers associate can help you use the 4cs (cut, color, clarity, and carat) to learn more about what makes each diamond different. And at Robbins Brothers, you can rest assured knowing that you are only viewing the best of the best in visual beauty as we only select about 1 in 10 diamonds we see, so you can be confident that your choice will be only the best quality.
For round cut diamonds, the cut is crucial as it determines how light reflects through it. A diamond that’s too shallow or too deep allows light to escape through the slides or bottom of the stone, leading to less light reflection.
We have an extensive selection of loose round brilliant cut diamonds that we have carefully chosen due to their sparkle and beauty. Also check out our round brilliant diamond buying guide!
