There exists a wide variety of diamond's cuts, yet princess cut is one of the most popular, especially for engagement and wedding rings. Although princess cut diamond ring doesn't look like a traditional wedding band with round gemstone, more and more brides all over the world opt for princess cut, being attracted by its brilliant sparkles. A typical princess cut diamond has 76 facets and is mounted into 4-prong setting made of platinum, gold or other precious metal. Princess cut design is rather original, in addition, even imperfect gems can look a million dollars, so the price of such a ring will be lower than if you opt for expensive perfect diamond and other cut.
Experts advise to be careful while choosing the diamond's color. To make your princess cut diamond ring look gorgeous, select the setting that will really match the color of the stone. Some jewelers claim an ideal choice is bezel setting, as the diamond will look larger, however, you should choose according to your own preferences. It is commonly perceived that a yellow diamond has to come in yellow gold setting, while white diamond should be mounted into white gold or platinum one. But in my opinion, such an approach is too boring: if all people had followed such rules, the most exciting masterpieces would have never been created. The gem shouldn't be of the same color with the setting: contrasts are also attractive. Besides, despite the fact that princess cut diamond rings usually come in platinum, yellow gold or white gold settings, try to find something more original, like unique Celtic style, famous for its two-toned rings.
Another important point while choosing a diamond ring is to deal with reputable sellers. A reliable retailer has to provide you with money back guaranty, warranty and certificate confirming diamond's quality. Be especially careful if you buy princess cut diamond ring online. |
