Hi again Leonid,

    I don't want to get into some silly argument about our personal
    preferences regarding princess versus round brilliant cut diamonds.
    It is just that our own personal preferences. 

    Don't get me wrong, I adore a good round brilliant diamond, they are
    beautiful without question but for some reason, myself and many
    other women love the princess cut. I love the arrangement of facets
    and princess cuts, like round brilliants look rubbish when included
    and beautiful when clean to the naked eye. 

    I have seen top quality round brilliants as a friend's dad is an
    independent high end jeweller and so when my friend got engaged, he
    commissioned his dad to make the engagement ring. I can't remember
    the spec off the top of my head but let's just say the diamonds are
    simply intoxicating, you couldn't stop looking at them. I've also
    seen top quality princess cuts and rounds at trade shows so know
    what you are saying, but I still like princess cuts. 

    I understand what you are saying about in a ring also. I love
    rounds, marquise, pear, oval in rings and yet princess is still my
    favourite and I can't explain why. Sorry for being stubborn.
