When it comes to pricing, princess cut diamonds are often less expensive per carat than round diamonds. This is due to the fact that a princess cut diamond makes better use of a rough diamond during the polishing process.

The four pointed edges of a princess cut diamond are one of its biggest drawbacks. Because points can be broken. They're thinner, more fragile, and prone to snagging on all your beloved sweaters.

A princess set with a compass, as well as a halo setting, makes the stone appear larger. Compass setting a princess diamond entails twisting it such that it is oriented north/south/east/west rather than squarely. A princess's diagonal length is larger than its side length, which greatly increases its size!

Princess cuts can have a lot of brilliance. However, they cannot compete with the brightness of round diamonds. No fancy cut can compete with their superior light performance. As a result, while princess cuts can be quite sparkly, they can never glimmer as brightly as a perfect round.

Princess cut diamonds, like round cut diamonds, are a fantastic choice since they can be used in practically any design of jewellery. Princess cut diamonds are also slightly less expensive per carat than round cut diamonds.

Because of their square length-to-width ratio, Princess Cuts appear slightly smaller than other diamonds of comparable carat weight. The diameter and surface area of a Princess Cut are smaller.
