Princess cut engagement rings feature a square centre-stone outline with pointed corners and brilliant-style faceting. The crisp shape creates a different impression from the rounded edges of a cushion. Compare the stone and setting together to see how the corners and band proportions define the design.
A solitaire highlights the geometry, while a halo adds a border and shoulder detailing extends interest along the band. Look carefully at how the setting supports the pointed corners. The height of the basket also matters when considering everyday wear and a future wedding-band pairing.
Princess cut refers to the shape and faceting, not a colour category. Our classic lab grown diamond rings focus on colourless diamond designs. The coloured lab grown diamond collection provides a separate colour-led range. Available shapes and materials vary by design, so use the individual product specification rather than assuming every option is offered in every cut.
No. Asscher and cushion cuts can also have broadly square outlines but use different faceting or corner shapes. The cutting style matters as well as the outside dimensions.
Check the length and width in millimetres alongside carat weight. Compare the visible stone dimensions, not the complete halo or mount width, when assessing two centres. Then consider how the finished setting looks and fits on the hand.
