Princess Cut Diamond Rings

Princess cut diamond engagement rings boast a unique connection to nature, as their shape mirrors that of rough diamonds formed under extreme heat and pressure. Inspired by this natural outline, Fergus James presents an exquisite collection of princess cut rings.
These diamonds shine in both simple settings and more elaborate halo and trilogy designs. Their flat edges make them particularly compatible with trilliant side stones, enhancing their brilliance. Notably, princess cut diamonds are among the most cost-effective options, offering great value due to their efficient cutting from rough stones.
One standout example is Emily Ratajkowski’s innovative ring featuring a 4-carat pear alongside a 3-carat princess cut. This bold combination highlights the architectural uniformity of the princess cut paired with the elegance of the pear shape, showcasing a striking contrast that elevates both diamonds.

Focus on Dimensions
Check the actual mm length and width dimensions (noted on the diamond certificate) of the Princess diamond not just the carat weight. A well cut 0.9ct Princess shape will have better dimensions, and look bigger, than many 1ct Princess cut diamonds. This helps to maximize visual impact and reduce the cost.

Clarity Matters with Princess
With Princess cut diamonds try and select ones with VS2 clarity or better to ensure that the diamond is eye clean.

Colour is Important
Princess cut diamonds show colour more than round diamonds. For a single solitaire design aim for an H colour or better. For a halo design aim for G/F colour or better.
