Diamond engagement rings might seem to share much in common—after all, whether you’re looking at a princess cut engagement ring or a round brilliant cut, it can be tricky to tell the difference. However, the type of ring you choose reflects your love, your passion, and your fiancée-to-be’s own unique style and beauty. While some engagement ring varieties are more popular than others, it’s smart to know how the type of center stone makes a ring particularly special. An increasingly popular choice, the princess cut engagement ring is classic and timeless, modern and trendy for women everywhere.
Clowes Jewellers of Red Deer, Alberta offers a guide to shoppers seeking a princess cut engagement ring. Here’s what you need to know before you choose the right ring, from the shape of the diamond to the various settings available.
What is a Princess Cut Engagement Ring?
A princess cut engagement ring is a sparkling style that features a center diamond with a square-shaped face. When you gaze upon a princess cut engagement ring, you’ll notice pyramids reflected below its gleaming surface as well as many facets atop its face. Those facets are what give this diamond shape its vivacity and flash—the princess cut diamond captures light in each facet, shining with a brilliance not found in other shapes and variations.
Considered one of the most popular engagement ring styles today, a princess cut ring is both fancy and full of sparkle, clean and timeless.
What Makes a Princess Cut Special?
The detailed cuts that form the princess cut shape are what make this type of engagement ring a truly special choice. Cut to maximize a diamond’s natural dazzle, princess cut stones are purposely shaped to be brighter and more brilliant than other variations. With the diamond’s facets forming clean lines and neat angles, a princess cut ring is elegant in any setting.
Considered chic and traditional because it allows the center diamond to shine brightly, princess cut diamonds are reminiscent of vintage ring styles. In addition to its everlasting style, a princess cut diamond ring is a very modern choice; it’s suitable for brides-to-be who wish for a ring that will never fade in terms of trends, as well as those who wish to stay current with what’s hot right now. It’s this timeless nature of the princess cut, along with its brilliantly gleaming shine, that makes this choice so popular. The princess cut is also adaptable, well suited for every type of ring from solitaire to three stone, antique or contemporary.
