About the Princess Cut

The princess cut is the most popular fancy shape and the second most popular diamond shape overall after the round brilliant. Square in outline with sharp, uncut corners and a brilliant-style faceting pattern, it offers near-round levels of sparkle while retaining far more of the rough crystal — making it a strong value proposition for wholesale buyers. Ideal ratios run from 1.00 to 1.05. Because the pointed corners are vulnerable to chipping, we advise manufacturers to use protective four-prong settings. Anand Exports cuts princess diamonds to tight symmetry tolerances, GIA and IGI certified.

Frequently Asked Questions

Princess Cut — straight answers
What is a princess cut diamond?

A princess cut is a square diamond with sharp corners and a brilliant faceting pattern. It is the most popular fancy shape, offering high sparkle with better rough yield than a round.

What is the ideal ratio for a princess cut?

A true square princess cut has a length-to-width ratio between 1.00 and 1.05. Higher ratios produce a noticeably rectangular stone.

Are princess cut diamonds cheaper than round diamonds?

Generally yes. Princess cuts retain more of the rough crystal during cutting, so the price per carat is typically lower than a comparable round brilliant.
