Princess |
The Princess cut, also known as “Square Modified Brilliant” cut, is a square version of the Round Brilliant cut with numerous sparkling facets.This is a “Brilliant Style” shape with sharp, uncut corners. The Princess Cut is a relatively new cut and often finds its way into solitaire engagement rings. Flattering to a hand with long fingers, it is often embellished with triangular stones at its sides. The advantages of the Princess cut are not restricted purely to Diamonds; it is also used on many other gemstones. Because of the extra faceting and the effects this produces, Princess cut stones are naturally brilliant and sparkly. |
