CARAT
The weight of a diamond is expressed in carats. As diamonds increase in value, their price
per carat usually increases. Of course the larger a diamond, the rarer it is. Each carat is equal
to 100 points. Therefore:
a .75 carat diamond = a 75 point diamond = a ¾ carat diamond
But once again, it's not just a diamonds carat weight or size that makes it valuable. All of the
other components listed above must work together in creating a diamond you'll be proud to
take home.
