Carat is the unit we use to measure a diamond's weight, not its size. One carat is equivalent to 200 milligrams, or 0.2 grams. It's a very small, yet very precise measurement, which allows the weight of each stone to be expressed accurately.
Weight has a significant influence on a diamond's value, but it doesn't tell the whole story. Two stones of the same weight can have a very different visual presence depending on their cut, color, and clarity.
Therefore, more carats doesn't always mean more beauty. A smaller diamond, but well-cut, clean, and balanced, can be more attractive than a larger stone with less careful proportions.
Carat weight should always be assessed within the overall context. It is the balance between weight, cut, color, and clarity that gives each diamond its personality, beauty, and value.
