The priencess cut diamond shape is the most important new cut or shape for diamonds since the invention or perfection of the modern brilliant cut over 60 years ago. It is a great improvement over the previous step cut used for square and oblong diamonds. It is effectively a square version of the round brilliant cut, and is known technically as a square modified brilliant cut.
The princess cut diamond is regarded as the most fancy of all diamond cuts. In fact it is most popularly used in engagement rings. It is worth noting here that you must always be careful when purchasing a diamond, as it is the most expensive precious stone available. In fact American Diamonds are sold in market that cost a negligibly price in comparison to the real diamonds, but have a sparkle that cause many-an-eye to flutter. Thus, it is always better to purchase diamonds from a certified dealer.
Because of the extra facetting, and the effects it produces, princess cuts are naturally more brilliant and sparkly than ordinary square diamonds. Any inclusions are less visible, and any slight yellowish or brownish colour is less noticeable, helping to create more attractive diamonds at more reasonable prices.
This is the most popular shape in engagement ring diamonds as it gives a brilliant brilliance when viewed from all the angles. This particular shape is much more preferred in a solitaire diamond engagement ring.
These diamonds are basically a square shaped brilliant cut diamond with sharp, uncut corners. This cut has a crown and on an average 76 pavilion facets that run vertical in direction. Other fancy shaped diamonds primarily have facets that run horizontally. Various Diamond Associations, such as GIA, AGS and HRD, have termed this diamond variation as the Square Modified Brilliant.
A princess cut with a length to width ratio of less than or equal to 1.05:1 will appear square to the observer. While a squarer diamond is the preference of many, some people prefer a slightly rectangular-shaped princess diamond.
