Princess cut diamonds are usually square or almost square in shape and have a modified brilliant cut instead of a step cut. This produces a much more brilliant diamond than the traditional step cut. Princess cut diamonds may have from 57 to 70 facets and variable proportions.

Princess cut diamonds have a high-weight yield from rough diamonds, making them one of the least expensive shapes to manufacture. More weight is located below the girdle than any other shape, therefore its size in millimeters is the smallest per carat weight. Princess cut diamonds can be found over-priced.

Princess cut diamonds are sometimes listed as a shape of fancy diamond, instead of listing "square" diamonds.
