Diamond Weights
When it's time to buy jewelry, we want to help you make an informed decision. One thing you'll want to know is the carat weight of your diamond(s). Of course, no two diamonds are exactly alike. Each is cut to maximize its natural beauty. In the process of diamond cutting, stones are sorted by the resulting diamond weight using the decimal system. To give you the best selection and price, our diamonds fall within a range appropriate to each fractional carat weight listing. The difference may not be visible to the naked eye, but we know it's important to you. That's why we've supplied the following table:

1/20 carat.04-.061 carat.95-1.17
1/10 carat.085-.111 1/5 carats1.18 - 1.22
