  The brilliance of even the smallest carat size is enough to make anyone feel like royalty. If you're searching for streamlined sophistication, look no further than the princess-cut engagement diamond ring.

• What setting suits a princess-cut diamond ring best?

  When it comes to selecting the perfect setting for a princess-cut diamond engagement ring, there are a few options that stand out as particularly elegant and luxurious.

  A classic prong setting allows for maximum brilliance and sparkle while also securely grasping the square corners of the stone. Another standout choice is a band adorned with smaller diamonds, accentuating the unique shape of the centre stone.

  Regardless of your style preference, choosing a setting to protect your princess-cut diamond while allowing its beauty to shine is key. Ultimately, any setting that complements the symmetry and clean lines of the diamond will make for a stunning choice. Our expert jewellery designers will help you choose the perfect setting for your stone.

• Is there an ideal depth for a princess-cut engagement ring?

  Choosing the right Princess cut diamond can be a time-consuming process. That is why we have the Four Word Standard, where we pick the best diamond that the eye can see, for you.

  This means you don’t have to spend time optimising for the best properties including not having to pay extra on qualities you’ll never see. Instead, we guarantee you will always get a high-performance diamond when crafting your Four Words ring.

  If you pick your own diamond – we recommend a depth between 70-75%. Other gemologists may recommend between 64 - 75%; however, we feel that these diamonds can be too shallow, affecting Princess cut diamonds' brilliance and sparkle.
