What is your favourite highly affordable setting for a 1ct princess cut?

[pearaffair]

I know princess cuts don’t always get a lot of love, but I dig ‘em!

I’m looking for a really simple setting. I like the Tiffany solitaire with the knife edge and v-prongs. I like other styles too, but I’m thinking to first put it in a basic simple cheap setting to make sure I like princess cuts on my hand.

I prefer white gold and platinum. I’m probably going to go with something from stuller. My finger size is 5.

Can’t wait to see your inspiration pics!

I’m a bezel fan so I’d go for the Stuller model that is sort of like the Tiffany bezet. Ideally I’d kite set it.

I really like that princess with the small round sides. Is it for a rhr? That works.

I don’t love bezelled square stones but the Tiffany bezet IS nice

For an alternate e-ring.

The small round sides are cute, eh?

Have I gone nuts? Maybe yellow gold???! It would certainly give me variety...

I personally love double claw prongs for square stones a bit like Harry Winston

For cheaper price obviously maybe something like this

It fits princess up to 1.5 ct

I had my jeweler bring in the second/third one. My stone is 1.22ct/6x6mm. It’s hard to see the side detail very well in that size. It’s still super pretty. Ultimately I went with a different one so my bands would sit more flush.






This is the one I went with.

Simple = best (IMHO)
