What does princess cut mean in earrings?

1 Answer
In the terminology of earrings, a princess cut refers to a specific cut or shape of diamond. Due to the arrangement of its facets, a princess cut resembles a square when viewed from above and a pyramid when you look at it from the side. A brilliant cut, the princess beautifully showcases the sparkle of a diamond, and the shape reduces the amount of waste created when shaping a diamond, making the cut cost-effective.
