Not necessarily.

A diamond is valued according to its cut -- round in this case, carat weight, colour and clarity.

  • Larger stones, of course, will be more valuable than smaller stones.
  • Larger more clear stones are usually cut in an emerald cut.
  • Fancy coloured stones are cut to highlight not only the colour but whatever other valuable attribute exists in the stone.

The princess cut diamond has a square or rectangular shape and it’s the second most popular diamond shape after the round diamond. The reason why the princess cut is cheaper and more affordable than a round cut is due to the fact that the yield from the rough stone is 80-90%, whereas the round diamond yield is about 40%. The larger the yield is the more affordable the diamond is.
