Pros, Cons, and Value

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about White Gold Princess Cut Wedding Rings
Why is the Princess Cut diamond often used in channel set wedding rings?+
The Princess Cut's square shape allows stones to be placed side-by-side with virtually no gap, creating a continuous, clean line of sparkle. The Channel Setting provides walls of gold on either side, which is crucial for protecting the stone's sharp, vulnerable corners. [Image of Princess Cut diamond in a channel setting]
Is 18K White Gold durable enough for a channel set diamond ring?+
Yes. 18K White Gold, while softer than 14K, is perfectly durable for a channel setting, as the metal surrounding the diamonds offers substantial protection. It is chosen for its superior richness and value.
What does the H Color and SI1 Clarity mean for these diamonds?+
H Color is "Near Colorless," meaning the stones appear bright white. SI1 Clarity is "Slightly Included," meaning any imperfections are minor and generally not visible to the naked eye (Eye Clean). This combination offers excellent brilliance and value for the carat weight. [Image of the diamond 4 C's chart]
How do I clean a channel set white gold princess cut wedding ring?+
Use a soft-bristled toothbrush, mild soap, and warm water. Brush gently inside the channel where dirt and soap residue can collect. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners unless specifically advised by your jeweler, as they can loosen stones over time.
