"On this clip, we're going to talk about the Princess cut. It's fairly modern; it's a fairly modern cut in that the popularity of it has just gone wild. People say, wow, that is, that is really, really neat. It is, it is total utilization of a properly formed crystal, as opposed to a crystal, diamond crystal that is found, that has been broken or what have you. But octahedral is a true form of crystallization of a diamond. And this has been cut from the octahedral and all of the corners meaning that, that's eight sided stone, all of the corners of this have been left square in order to utilize the most of that particular crystal. It costs a little more, it weighs a little more. In comparison to the round, it's got four corners as opposed to the round stone not having any of those corners. It's a very desirable stone and it has been very popular over the last twenty, twenty-five years."
