Princess cut engagement rings mix the classic step cut and the brilliant cut. This means that there are more facets to the ring. Facets increase the diamond's sparkle and fire. These rings are often set with prongs at each of the four corners to protect the edges of the diamond. The stone is aligned either parallel to the ring or in an angle to present a "diamond" shaped diamond.
Other settings can be used as well. Some people like the princess cut set directly into the ring in a channel setting. This is a popular style for a men's band when the bride has a Princess cut solitaire. Another popular style is to have the diamond as the centerpiece of a multiple stone setting. One of the most popular multiple stone settings are large Princess cut diamond in the center with a smaller Princess cut diamonds on either side.
Princess cut engagement rings can be less expensive than other rings because the style allows imperfections in the diamond to be cut away. The cut also requires less time to cut and polish, so you're not spending as much money on workmanship.
Jewelers using princess cut engagement rings can use the less expensive industrial grade diamonds instead of gemstones, thus reducing their cost. You can often find the diamonds for $100 a carat compared with $750 a carat for gemstone quality. This means that you can buy a much larger diamond for a lower price than you could purchase a smaller diamond in other cut.
