Natural Princess Cut Diamond Engagement Rings
A princess cut diamond is square when seen from above, with sharp corners and brilliant facets that give it more sparkle than other square shapes. Every princess diamond here is natural and earth-mined, F or G color, and each listing states the clarity and any enhancement (what clarity enhanced means).
Sizes run from a 0.3 carat center with princess side stones in Brilliant Hues to a 3 carat center in Glow. Choose a four-prong solitaire such as the 2 carat Lightyear, a hidden halo as in Milky Way (1.5 carats) and Night Light (2.15 carats), a halo as in Genee, or a twisted shank in Fire Sparks. For a matching band, see our princess cut wedding bands.
Princess cut diamond engagement rings: FAQ
What is a princess cut diamond?
A square diamond cut as a brilliant, so it sparkles instead of showing the long flashes of an emerald or Asscher cut. The modern princess cut dates from around 1980; our history of diamond shapes tells the story.
Is a princess cut the same as a square diamond?
Most square diamonds sold today are princess cuts. Asscher and square radiant cuts are square too, but their corners are cut off and their facets differ.
How do I protect the corners of a princess cut?
The four corners are the thinnest points of the stone. Choose prongs that cover each corner, or a halo or bezel that surrounds them.
Does a princess cut look bigger than a round diamond?
Measured corner to corner, a princess cut is wider than a round diamond of the same weight, so it can look slightly larger on the hand.
How long does it take to make a princess cut engagement ring?
Each ring is made to order. Production takes 10-14 business days, plus shipping.
