Understanding Diamond Sizes

Our comprehensive diamond size chart is designed to help you visualize and compare diamond sizes, ensuring you find the ideal gem for your needs.
Why Diamond Size Matters
The size of a diamond significantly impacts its overall appearance and value. While carat weight is a common measure, the actual dimensions of the diamond play a crucial role in its visual size. A well-proportioned diamond can appear larger and more brilliant, making the size chart an essential tool for your selection process.
