Guide to Princess Cut Diamonds

Princess cut diamonds are the square versions of round brilliant cut diamonds. Also known as square modified brilliant cuts, they evolved from the Barion cut created by Basil Watermeyer 30 years ago.

Princess cut diamonds offer excellent light reflection and refraction, making them ideal for earrings, pendants, and rings. They can be made in different styles, combined with other precious stones, and set in different metals including platinum, gold, and sterling silver. They are available in different carats.
