Key features & specs

How it compares

Compared to a round brilliant moissanite ring, the princess cut offers a more modern, geometric aesthetic with a larger face-up appearance for the same carat weight. Versus a natural 2-carat princess diamond (which costs tens of thousands), this moissanite ring is over 95% less expensive while offering comparable brilliance and VVS1 clarity. It differs from standard cubic zirconia rings by using genuine moissanite, which is much harder and has a higher refractive index.

What to know before buying

1. Choose the carat size carefully — a 3-carat princess cut may appear very large on smaller fingers (size 4-5).
2. Princess cuts can have sharp corners; consider a protective bezel or prong setting to prevent snagging.
3. Verify the specific metal (sterling silver vs. 14k gold) as some listings offer multiple options.
4. Moissanite can appear slightly more fiery than a diamond; some buyers love this, others prefer a more subtle sparkle.
5. Check for a certification of the moissanite to ensure authentic stone quality.
