2 Carat Princess Cut Diamond Ring vs 2 Carat 14K White Gold Classic Side Stone Prong Set GIA Certified Princess Cut Diamond Engagement Ring (1 Ct K Color SI1 Clarity Center Stone)

Buy the Shiree Odiz ring if the center stone's quality matters most: it is a 2.02 ct E/VS2 ideal-cut princess in platinum, with an independent diamond certificate. The Houston Diamond District ring spreads its 2 ct total across a 1 ct K/SI1 center plus side stones in 14K white gold, so it looks larger on the hand but the center is warmer and less clean. Reviewers of both styles praise the princess cut's sparkle; owners of bezel settings report snag-free wear, while prong settings show more of the stone but catch on fabric.

• Choose the Shiree Odiz ring if you want a high-color, eye-clean 2 ct center in a low-profile bezel and platinum that holds up to daily wear.
• Choose the Houston Diamond District ring if you prefer a prong-set solitaire look with side stones and a GIA-certified center, and you accept a warmer K color.
