Princess cut is the square counterpart to round brilliant — sharp, modern corners with a comparable level of sparkle, and typically a more efficient cut from the rough diamond.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are princess-cut diamonds more affordable than round?
Often yes, per carat — princess cuts use more of the rough diamond during cutting, which can make them better value for size.
Do princess-cut diamonds need special protection in a setting?
Their corners are more prone to chipping than rounded shapes, so we typically recommend V-prong or protective corner settings.
