Princess Cut Engagement Rings

We usually recommend V-tip prongs. A princess cut's sharp corners can be a weak point, and V-tips protect them while keeping a sleek look. Round-tip prongs also work, but they need to be a little chunkier to guard the corners fully.

Both are square. A princess has sharp 90-degree corners, while a square cushion keeps the square shape with softer, bowed edges for a gentler, more romantic feel. Clients who love a square but find the princess too angular often compare the two.

Both are geometric, but they shine differently. An emerald cut is a rectangular step cut with a hall-of-mirrors effect and subtle flashes of light. A princess cut has brilliant faceting, so it gives intense, fiery sparkle instead.
