Princess Cut Diamond Rings

The princess cut diamond rings are a bit more modern than many other styles. It was first developed in the 1960s, and is fairly different than the traditional square cut. If you want something with the fire of a round brilliant, but more unique, then this is a great choice. The princess cut diamond ring has extra faceting that provides natural scintillation and enhanced fire. The inclusions and color are well hidden in this type of modified cut. A lot of the older square cuts have noticeable flaws and don’t give off much of a sparkle. The princess style, however, has sharp, uncut corners and an average 76 facets, giving it more fire and brilliance than a lot of round brilliants. For this reason, the princess cut diamond ring is quickly becoming the most popular cuts in the US.

When choosing a princess cut diamond ring, you will have a wide variety of choices -more so than you would with any other cut. This is because the cutting process allows for less precision, since the large number of facets easily hide inclusions on a princess cut diamond ring. You can afford good quality, since the minimum requirements aren’t as steep. You should be able to afford above average cut, color, clarity, carat, and a depth percentage of at least 56%. The process of cutting a princess diamond ring this way is also very economical. This is because the cutting doesn’t waste very much of the original stone at all. Because of this, jewelry stores can afford to sell a princess cut diamond ring at a lower price than a round or heart shape diamond ring.
