What is a Princess Cut?

The princess cut has its own glorious history as the traces of its origin can be found back in 1971. A princess-cut stone is a square-shaped stone when looked from the top. This cut is known for its maximum brilliance and fire. The bottom of the princess cut stone appears like an inverted pyramid with four-points from the top conflating into one vertex at the bottom. 

Due to its composite facet structure, it can boast up to 76 tiny facets and exude high brilliance. It is said that old is gold and it fits quite right on the princess cut as this cut is the most demanded cut after the round cut. The shape of the princess cut stone makes all the difference to your jewelry.

A cushion-cut gem is a square-shaped stone with round edges. The ‘old mine cut’ from the earlier times bears quite a resemblance to the modern cushion cut style. Some of the cushion cut stones might appear like an oval-shaped stone due to very round-shaped corners. 

Also, the shape of the cushion cut is like a pillow which is why it is also called pillow cut. Cushion cut stones usually have 58 facets which is why they are quite brilliant in reflecting light. The cushion-cut stones undergo many alterations in order to get the superb brilliance they are known for.
