Princess cut diamond earrings come in a variety of weights, from about a quarter of a carat to a stunning four-carat weight! When it comes to metal settings, the Princess cut diamond looks stunning matched with a variety of metals. A platinum setting brings out the shimmer and gleam of the diamond perfectly, although they also work well with silver, gold and white gold.

Princess cut diamond earrings have been making an appearance on many A-List celebrities, including Kylie Minogue, Ashlee Simpson and Jennifer Aniston. These celebrities know that the Princess diamond earrings are versatile enough to go from a casual lunch to a red carpet event, while always looking stunning and classy. From classic style-queen Jennifer, to pop-rock chick Ashlee, there is nobody that this shape does not suit!

There are always points you must consider before buying any diamond jewellery and these definitely apply if you are considering buying a pair of Princess cut diamond earrings. Firstly, you need to ask yourself what weight diamond you would like in your earrings. There are many options open to you. If your budget is not astronomical, a quarter carat diamond might be the way to go. Many people will go for a one-carat diamond if they are looking for an investment or a very nice gift for a loved one. A four-carat diamond is very large and showy! It will come with a hefty price tag, so this one is only for those willing to pay an "arm and a leg"!

You will also need to consider the metal you would like for the setting. Diamonds will match any sort of metal, although some are more durable than others. Ideally, a platinum setting is the strongest to hold your diamonds. It is also the most expensive, so you might want to consider white gold for the same look with a much cheaper price tag.

Of course, you always want to make sure that you only purchase from a reputable jeweller. There are so many different dealers out there that it can be easy to get taken advantage of. Do some research, and settle on a jeweller that has a spotless reputation, and that deals in certified diamonds. This will ensure that your investment will be worthwhile.

Princess cut diamond earrings are not only limited to studs! You can find these diamond earrings in a variety of different styles. These can include stunning dangle and drop earrings. The Princess cut diamonds can drop from your ears to glisten as you move, or can dangle so long that they sweep your shoulders. Anything is possible with this classic type of jewellery! If you can't find exactly what you are looking for, you can even have a pair of diamond earrings specially made - this is a great way to ensure you get the perfect pair of earrings! You will be able to find many jewellers who can help you to do this, and even though you will end up paying a higher price, you can be sure that your pair of diamond earrings will be truly unique.

When you are shopping for a classic set of jewellery for your collection, it is hard to go past a pair of diamond earrings. And what could be better than a pair set with stunning Princess cut diamonds? These classic earrings will be a wardrobe staple, and you will wear them time and time again for any occasion. - 15343
