The princess cut diamond jewellery that women adore
The fact that a round cut is the most popular design chosen with diamond jewellery
, including diamond rings, shows how much women love the pieces of jewellery that sparkle and flash for all to see.
However on the horizon and catching up in popularity is the princess cut diamond' which is square in shape.
Jewellery is so popular that most women are looking for the unusual pieces and settings with their diamonds, and the princess cut diamond matches up to their expectations.
A round cut diamond produces a fiery sparkle while the princess cut diamond' is known as the brilliant cut diamond' due to it having over 40 facets. The result is a brilliant light reflection that shines outwards through the top of the stone.
When a jeweller refers to a cut of a diamond each cut will have many facets and the princess cut diamond is referred to having 40 facets or more, the setting is the most important part when purchasing new pieces of diamond jewellery.
The corners of a princess cut diamond are the area where the diamond is fragile. Care is needed when handling it, as the larger the stone the more fragile the corners.
Diamond rings or any other item of jewellery such as a pair of earrings will be set to hold the diamond in shape, usually with strong shaped prongs to stop the diamond from coming loose.
The settings usually consist of 4 or more prongs, and jewellery experts know the size and weight of a stone and will design a piece of jewellery with a setting that will hold the diamond securely in place.
In some diamond rings the princess cut' is more of a yellow colour at the corners of a stone. A higher grade of faceted stone will be whiter in colour.
