Following yesterday’s selection of the best princess cut diamond for $19,000, today we present you with the best princess cut diamond for $17,000.  I first looked for a stone for $18,000, but I couldn’t find anything as nice as today’s selection for $17,000.  Today’s stone is truly something special.  It’s quite evident from the certificate details that this stone was made by a true artisan who took a perfectionists approach to polishing this stone.  This stone has several features (perfect square, Ex/Ex, perfect table and depth%) that are rare enough to find by themselves – but this stone has them all together which makes this stone uniquely rare and special.

James Allen Engagement Ring

James Allen (as most other online diamond vendors) shows most of their rings by default set with a round diamond.  The reason is clear – the majority of consumers want a round diamond, so it just makes sense to show the rings by default with a round diamond.  On occasion, though, there are some rings that just look like they were made for a princess cut diamond even though they can easily accomodate a round brilliant cut diamond (or any other shape for that matter).

Today’s suggested ring is one such setting.  James Allen’s 18k White Gold Channel Set Princess Cut Diamond Engagement Ring has a small pave size princess cut diamonds channel set right into the shank.  These stones provide a beautiful build up to a towering princess cut diamond center stone.

In White Gold, after the TADJ10 discount, this setting costs $1147.50.  In Platinum, it is $1395 after discount.
