The ideal setting for a princess cut ring largely depends on the style that you are striving for. Often, most people choose a prong setting for their princess cut diamond to hold the center stone in place with four or six tiny metal claws. The v-shaped prongs are highly preferred for these diamonds as they guard the pointed edges of the diamond and intensify your ring's shine and overall beauty by allowing maximum light. Another popular option is the bezel setting, which encases the diamond with a metal rim to offer more safeguarding and a sleek look.
