Diamond Value Per Carat
The average price of a diamond can range between €1,181 and €2,108 per carat.
The physical weight unit of diamonds is the 'carat'. One carat equals 0.20 grams or 1/5 gram and is divided into 100 points.
Carat weight is one of the most objective criteria of the 4Cs (4 Criteria) of diamonds. All you need is a scale capable of measuring extremely low weights to know the diamond's weight. It must be precise to the hundredth of a carat. Diamonds are not weighed in grams or kilos; that wouldn't make sense. In major gemology labs like GIA, HRD, or IGI, carat weight is measured using highly precise and calibrated digital scales.
The price of a diamond is always calculated based on its carat weight.
Larger diamonds are rarer than smaller ones, so they cost more.
The value of a diamond increases with its carat weight.
