As one of the world’s most popular diamond shapes, the princess cut combines remarkable sparkle with clean geometric lines, making it an outstanding choice for engagement rings and milestone jewellery.
At Her Crown, we believe every diamond should celebrate a woman’s journey of becoming. A princess cut diamond reflects confidence, modern elegance, and a future shaped by your own achievements.
What Is a Princess Cut Lab Grown Diamond?
A princess cut lab grown diamond is a real diamond created using advanced technology that replicates the natural diamond-growing process. It possesses the same chemical composition, crystal structure, hardness, and optical beauty as a mined diamond.
Recognised by its square or slightly rectangular outline and brilliant-cut facets, the princess cut delivers exceptional sparkle while maintaining a sleek, contemporary appearance.

The History of the Princess Cut
Developed during the late twentieth century, the princess cut quickly became one of the most successful modern diamond shapes.
Its innovative faceting was designed to maximise brilliance while creating a distinctive square outline, offering an elegant alternative to the traditional round brilliant diamond.
Today, it remains one of the most requested engagement ring shapes worldwide.
The Four Cs for Princess Cut Diamonds
Cut
Cut quality determines brilliance, symmetry, and light performance. A well-cut princess diamond displays exceptional sparkle across its entire surface.
Colour
Princess cuts conceal colour well thanks to their brilliant facets, making D to F colour grades particularly desirable for luxury jewellery.
Clarity
The brilliant facet arrangement helps disguise many inclusions, making VS and VVS clarity grades excellent choices for exceptional beauty.
Carat
Princess cut diamonds often appear slightly larger than expected due to their square outline and generous face-up appearance.
Understanding Princess Cut Diamond Proportions
A beautifully proportioned princess cut should display:
- Excellent symmetry.
- Balanced square outline.
- Crisp corner definition.
- Exceptional brilliance.
Best Ring Settings for Princess Cut Diamonds
Princess cut diamonds pair beautifully with:
- Solitaire settings.
- Halo designs.
- Pavé bands.
- Three-stone settings.
Because the pointed corners are more vulnerable than rounded shapes, protective prongs are recommended to enhance durability for everyday wear.
