Princess diamonds, lab-grown and natural

The princess gives you a round’s fire in a crisp, modern square. It looks a little smaller per carat than other shapes, and its four sharp corners need protecting.

Every princess we sell is certified by GIA, IGI or HRD and has a 360° video, so you can see its sparkle and its corners before you buy.

Our advice

“A princess gives you a round’s fire in a clean square. It looks smaller per carat, so compare millimetres, and always protect its four corners.”

03 · Questions

Princess diamond questions

What size is a 1 carat princess diamond?

About 5.3 to 5.6 mm on each side. It faces up a little smaller than a round of the same weight, so compare millimetres.

Are princess diamonds fragile?

Their four sharp corners can chip. Prongs that cover the corners, or a bezel, protect them.

Princess or square radiant?

Both are square brilliants. The princess has sharp corners; the square radiant has cut corners, which makes it easier to wear every day.
