Does a 0.75 carat radiant look bigger than a round of the same weight?

Yes. It covers about 1% more face-up area than a 0.75 carat round, so it reads about the size of a 0.76 carat round.

What setting fits a 0.75 carat radiant diamond?

A 0.75 carat radiant sits in solitaire, halo, three stone, bezel, cathedral and east–west. The seat to order is 5.85 mm for a solitaire, measured across the axis that crosses the finger.

How big is a 0.75 carat radiant diamond?

Q: How big is a 0.75 carat radiant diamond?

A 0.75 carat radiant diamond measures about 5.81 by 4.84 millimetres and covers roughly 27.1 square millimetres seen from above.

A 0.75 carat radiant measures about 5.81 × 4.84 mm and covers roughly 27.1 mm² seen from above.

It reads about the size of a 0.76 ct round. Face-up it covers about 1% more area than a round of the same weight, because 0.75 ct spread into a longer outline shows more of itself from above.

The numbers

Length × width	5.81 × 4.84 mm
Length to width ratio	1.20 : 1
Depth	3.29 mm
Face-up area	27.1 mm²
Same weight, round	5.85 mm across, 26.8 mm²
Looks like a round of	0.76 ct

Calculated from standard weight factors and typical proportions. A particular stone's certificate is the exact answer; these are what to expect.

How wide is that on a finger?

A stone's width is what crosses the finger, and the same 4.84 mm reads differently depending on whose hand it is on — which is why photographs of other people's hands mislead.

Ring size (US)	Finger width	Stone covers
5	16.79 mm	29% of the width
6.5	18.10 mm	27% of the width
8	19.40 mm	25% of the width

Finger width is estimated from ring size at the average of three cross-sections, so treat it as a guide. The tool measures your own finger from a photograph instead.

Will it fit the setting?

A head is built around a seat of a particular diameter, and clearances run a tenth to half a millimetre — so a stone can be exactly the size you wanted and still not sit in the ring you picked. What each common style does with a 5.81 × 4.84 mm radiant:

Style	Seat to order	This stone in it
Solitaire	5.85 mm	Fits, with room to spare
Halo	5.24 mm	Made for a stone this size
Three stone	5.85 mm	Fits, with room to spare
Bezel	5.24 mm	Made for a stone this size
Cathedral	5.85 mm	Fits, with room to spare
East–west	7.91 mm	Fits, with room to spare

6 of 6 common styles take it. The seat is what the head should be ordered in, not a fixed figure: a head is made in a range and this is the point in that range this stone wants.

These are approximate reference values, not manufacturer specifications. Half a millimetre of error flips the answer, so use the seat diameter from the actual product page whenever you have one.
