I often here this from my customers, I would def. say I sell brilliant cuts 3x more than princess cuts in earrings.The round is easier to wear because if it turns it still looks the same. Squares will move and look uneven.
Rounds have more facets cut into them (58) versus princess (54), so round sparkles more. Princess looks larger because the table (top of the diamond) is larger. Round set in platinum is my first pick. White metal under diamonds make them look brighter. Yellow gold shows a yellow body color through the stone.
I have a radiant cut which is a square cut with a brilliance of a round. The edges are cut off and if you look real close u can see a round image in it, all my friends say it sparkles like crazy! I LOVE it! It is a 1.25 carat colorless stone on a platium band, if you love the princess cut I'll love the radiant, it sparkles like a round!
