The earliest method of cutting loose diamonds was known as the point cut, which simply followed the gem’s natural shape. The first brilliant cut diamonds date from the mid-1600s.
Princess cut diamonds are gaining in popularity, currently ranking #2 among those who collect loose diamonds and diamond jewelry.
Among diamond cutters, princess cut diamonds are the more desirable, as this particular cut wastes very little of the rough diamond; thus, the diamond retains more of its original carat weight. This also makes princess cut diamonds less expensive than their traditionally round cut counterparts.
